Skanda Purana — Brahma Khanda, Shloka 63
तेषु जन्मसहस्रेषु यानि पुण्यानि संति ते । तेषामाधिक्यतः क्वापि जायते पुण्ययोनिषु
teṣu janmasahasreṣu yāni puṇyāni saṃti te | teṣāmādhikyataḥ kvāpi jāyate puṇyayoniṣu
Entre esos miles de nacimientos, los méritos que poseas—cuando llegan a predominar—hacen que uno nazca en algún lugar en vientres auspiciosos y meritorios.
Śrī Guru (continuing instruction)
Listener: Rājan
Scene: The guru illustrates a ‘scale’ of karma: bright, auspicious imagery (lotus, lamp, sacred thread, temple silhouette) rises when puṇya outweighs pāpa; the disciple’s face shows relief and resolve.
