Educational Q&A

Righteous conduct (dharma) is portrayed as yielding not merely social order on earth but also exalted posthumous attainments—symbolized here by a radiant vimāna and residence in Brahmaloka—affirming a moral universe where merit bears fruit.

Bhishma, instructing the king, describes a magnificent celestial vimāna prepared for a meritorious person, detailing its brilliance, ornaments, auspicious birds, and its establishment in Brahmaloka, and notes that this account was taught by the sage Aṅgiras.
