Narada Purana — Purva Bhaga, Shloka 60
Anadhyaya and the Winds: From Vedic Recitation Protocol to Sanatkumara’s Moksha-Upadesha
किंचिन्प्रज्ञानतृप्तोऽसौ ज्ञानतृप्तो न शोचति । शुभैर्लभेत देवत्वं व्यामिश्रैर्जन्म मानुषम् ॥ ६० ॥
kiṃcinprajñānatṛpto'sau jñānatṛpto na śocati | śubhairlabheta devatvaṃ vyāmiśrairjanma mānuṣam || 60 ||
Siapa yang walau sedikit puas oleh kebijaksanaan luhur dan dipenuhi pengetahuan sejati, ia tidak berduka. Dengan karma suci yang baik diperoleh kedewataan; dengan karma campuran lahir sebagai manusia.
