उवाच चैन विप्रर्षि विमान॑ कर्मभिर्जितम् । समुपारोह संसिद्धि प्राप्तोडसि परमां मुने,देवदूतने ब्रह्मर्षि मुदगलसे कहा--'मुने! यह विमान आपको शुभ कर्मोंसे प्राप्त हुआ है। इसपर बैठिये। आप परम सिद्धि प्राप्त कर चुके हैं!
uvāca caina viprarṣi vimānaṁ karmabhir jitam | samupāroha saṁsiddhiṁ prāpto 'si paramāṁ mune || devadūtena brahmarṣi mudgalase kathā— “mune! idaṁ vimānaṁ te śubhakarmabhiḥ prāptam; asmin upaviśa. tvaṁ paramāṁ siddhiṁ prāpto 'si.”
Lalu utusan dewa itu berkata kepada brahmarṣi Mudgala: “Wahai muni, vimāna ini dimenangkan oleh perbuatan bajikmu. Naiklah; engkau telah mencapai kesempurnaan tertinggi.”

Educational Q&A
The verse emphasizes karmaphala: sustained righteous deeds (śubha-karma) culminate in spiritual accomplishment (saṁsiddhi) and the ‘highest perfection’ (paramā siddhi). Attainment is portrayed as ethically earned rather than arbitrarily granted.
A divine messenger appears and invites the sage Mudgala to ascend a celestial vimāna, declaring that it has been obtained through his deeds and that he has reached the supreme state of accomplishment.
