Shloka 58
कालयुक्तधर्मविवेकः
Discerning Dharma in Accord with Time
ईदृश: पुरुषोत्कर्षो देवि देवत्वमश्रुते । उपपन्नान् सुखान् भोगानुपाश्चाति मुदा युतः:
īdṛśaḥ puruṣotkarṣo devi devatvam aśnute | upapannān sukhān bhogān upāśnāti mudā yutaḥ ||
ದೇವಿ! ಇಂತಹ ಪುರುಷೋತ್ತಮನು ದೇವತ್ವವನ್ನು ಪಡೆಯುತ್ತಾನೆ; ಹರ್ಷಯುಕ್ತನಾಗಿ ದೇವಲೋಕದಲ್ಲಿ ಸ್ವತಃ ದೊರಕುವ ಯೋಗ್ಯ ಸುಖಭೋಗಗಳನ್ನು ಅನುಭವಿಸುತ್ತಾನೆ.

Educational Q&A
The verse teaches that a person of exemplary conduct—especially one grounded in harmlessness and righteous living—attains a divine state and enjoys legitimate, naturally accruing सुख (happiness) and भोग (enjoyments) in the heavenly realm.
Maheśvara addresses Devī and concludes a praise of an ideal ethical type of person, stating the फल (result): such a person reaches देवत्व (divinity) and experiences joyful enjoyments that are ‘upapanna’—properly obtained—among the gods.
