अव्यक्त-प्रबोधः (Awakening to the Unmanifest): The 25th and 26th Principles and Eligibility for Brahma-vidyā
यथा यथा हि सद्वृत्तमालम्बन्तीतरे जना: । तथा तथा सुख प्राप्य प्रेत्य चेह च मोदते,इतर जातीय मनुष्य भी जैसे-जैसे सदाचारका आश्रय लेते हैं, वैसे-ही-वैसे सुख पाकर इहलोक और परलोकमें भी आनन्द भोगते हैं
yathā yathā hi sadvṛttam ālambantī tare janāḥ | tathā tathā sukhaṃ prāpya pretya ceha ca modate ||
Parāśara dijo: «En la medida en que los hombres se acogen a la buena conducta, en esa misma medida alcanzan la felicidad; y, una vez obtenida, se regocijan tanto aquí en este mundo como, tras la muerte, en el venidero.»
