FAQs

It uses the Purāṇic idiom of kāla (time) as an impersonal ordering force to transition from ethical narrative to post-mortem consequence.

None; “paraloka” is a cosmological/eschatological category rather than a geographic site.

Human life and power are subject to time; therefore ethical priorities—especially sustaining gifts—should not be neglected.
