Strī-satkāra (On honoring women) — Mahābhārata 13.46
अहोरात्रं विजानाति ऋतवश्चापि नित्यश: । पुरुषे पापकं कर्म शुभं वा शुभकर्मिण:,पापीमें जो पापकर्म है और शुभकर्मी मनुष्यमें जो शुभकर्म है, उन सबको दिन, रात और ऋतुएँ सदा जानती रहती हैं
ahorātraṃ vijānāti ṛtavaś cāpi nityaśaḥ | puruṣe pāpakaṃ karma śubhaṃ vā śubhakarmiṇaḥ ||
El día y la noche, y también las estaciones, dan testimonio sin cesar: conocen las acciones pecaminosas del pecador, y asimismo las acciones auspiciosas de quien obra bien. Los ritmos mismos del mundo son un testimonio silencioso de que ningún acto —dañino o benéfico— pasa inadvertido en el orden moral.

Time itself—day, night, and the seasons—stands as an ever-present witness to human conduct; both wrongdoing and virtuous action are known and thus carry moral consequence.
Vipula is speaking in a didactic context, emphasizing ethical vigilance by stating that the cycles of time continually observe and ‘know’ the good and bad deeds performed by people.
