प्रहस्योवाच भगवान्बृहस्पति रुदारधीः । पुरा त्वया कृतं यच्च तस्येदं कर्मणः फलम्
prahasyovāca bhagavānbṛhaspati rudāradhīḥ | purā tvayā kṛtaṃ yacca tasyedaṃ karmaṇaḥ phalam
Lächelnd sprach der erhabene Bṛhaspati, fest im rechten Verstehen: „Was du einst getan hast, dies ist die Frucht jener Tat.“
Bṛhaspati
Tirtha: Kedāra
Type: kshetra
Scene: Bṛhaspati smiles gently while speaking; Indra listens, chastened; the smile conveys compassion without negating the firmness of karmic law.
Actions inevitably mature into results; knowledge of karma is the start of responsible correction.
The Kedārakhaṇḍa sacred setting contextualizes the teaching, though this verse focuses on karma doctrine.
None directly; the verse introduces the principle that consequences arise from prior deeds.
