Indratīrtha–Ādityatīrtha: Balarāma’s Ritual Bathing, Dāna, and Sacred-Historical Recollections
तस्माद् योडभिमत: काम: स ते सम्पत्स्यते शुभे । देहं त्यक्त्वा महा भागे त्रिदिवे मयि वत्स्यसि
tasmād yo ’bhimataḥ kāmaḥ sa te sampatsyate śubhe | dehaṃ tyaktvā mahābhāge tridive mayi vatsyasi ||
Por tanto, oh auspiciosa, el deseo que tienes por más querido en tu corazón se cumplirá sin falta. Oh, muy afortunada, cuando abandones este cuerpo, morarás conmigo en Tridiva, el cielo. (Así Indra, complacido con sus austeridades, sus votos y su devoción, le concede la gracia y le promete una morada en el cielo.)

Educational Q&A
Steadfast austerity, disciplined observance of vows, and sincere devotion are portrayed as generating spiritual merit that can culminate in the fulfillment of one’s rightful wish and an elevated post-mortem destiny (dwelling in heaven).
Indra, satisfied with a maiden’s tapas, rule-observance, and devotion, addresses her kindly and grants assurance: her cherished desire will be fulfilled, and after leaving her body she will reside with him in heaven.
