Educational Q&A
That dharma must be practiced without compromise or contamination (asaṅkara). Such integrity in righteousness is presented as a direct cause of spiritual merit and attainment of heaven.
A father-in-law addresses a twice-born man and urges him to proceed to heaven, attributing this destiny to the man’s practice of an unmixed, undefiled dharma.
