Mujeres así —excelentes y firmes en su voto hacia el esposo— son honradas en el mundo de los dioses por el mérito de sus propias obras.
Execellent women such as these, firm in their vows to their husband are highly revered in the world of gods through their own meritorious deeds.
Accountability of one’s own karma: honour arises from one’s meritorious actions and steadfast adherence to vowed duty.
Anasūyā concludes a teaching segment by stating the spiritual esteem gained through firm, righteous conduct.
Steadfastness (dṛḍha-vrata) and integrity in action (karma aligned with dharma).
