कालयुक्तधर्मविवेकः
Discerning Dharma in Accord with Time
जो श्रद्धालु, दयालु, शुद्ध, शुद्धजनोंके प्रेमी तथा धर्म और अधर्मके ज्ञाता हैं, वे मनुष्य स्वर्गगामी होते हैं ।।
śrīmaheśvara uvāca | ye śraddhālavo dayālavaḥ śuddhāḥ śuddhajanapremiṇaḥ dharmādharmavido manuṣyāḥ svargagāmino bhavanti | śubhānām aśubhānāṃ ca karmaṇāṃ phalasañcaye vipākajñā ye devi te narāḥ svargagāminaḥ ||
Śrī Maheśvara dit : Ceux qui ont la foi, la compassion et la pureté; qui aiment la compagnie des purs; et qui discernent en matière de dharma et d’adharma, parviennent à la voie du ciel. Ô Devī, ceux qui comprennent l’accumulation des fruits des actes favorables et défavorables, et savent comment les actions mûrissent en conséquences—ceux-là vont au monde céleste.

Educational Q&A
Heavenward progress is linked to inner and social virtues—faith, compassion, purity, love of the virtuous—and to moral discernment: knowing dharma from adharma and understanding how actions (good and bad) accumulate and ripen into results.
Śrī Maheśvara addresses Devī, describing the qualities of people who attain svarga, emphasizing both character (śraddhā, dayā, śuddhi, sat-saṅga) and ethical insight into karmic consequences (śubha/aśubha karma-phala and their vipāka).
