Shloka 38
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 ||
Mereka yang beriman, berbelas kasih, suci, mencintai pergaulan dengan orang-orang suci, serta memahami dharma dan adharma—merekalah yang menuju surga. Wahai Dewi, mereka yang mengetahui himpunan buah dari perbuatan baik dan buruk, dan memahami bagaimana akibatnya matang (vipāka)—mereka pun mencapai alam surga.

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).
