Gṛdhra–Jambuka Saṃvāda (Dialogue of the Vulture and the Jackal) — On Grief, Kāla, and Resolve
विमानशतकोटीभिरावृतं पुण्यकर्मभि: । उसने विचित्र हार और वस्त्र धारण कर रकक््खे थे और वह सब प्रकारके आभूषणोंसे विभूषित था। अरबों पुण्यकर्मी पुरुषोंसे युक्त विमानोंने उसे घेर रक्खा था ।।
vimānaśatakoṭibhir āvṛtaṃ puṇyakarmabhiḥ | tataḥ svarga gataḥ pakṣī vimānavaram āsthitaḥ | karmaṇā pūjitas tatra reme sa saha bhāryayā ||
ພີສະມະ ກ່າວວ່າ: «ຖືກຫ້ອມລ້ອມດ້ວຍວິມານຟ້າອາກາດນັບຮ້ອຍໂກດິ ທີ່ເຕັມໄປດ້ວຍຜູ້ມີບຸນກຳ, ນົກນັ້ນຈຶ່ງຂຶ້ນສູ່ສະຫວັນ ນັ່ງຢູ່ເທິງວິມານອັນປະເສີດ. ທີ່ນັ້ນ ມັນໄດ້ຮັບການບູຊາດ້ວຍຜົນແຫ່ງກຳດີ ແລະຢູ່ຢ່າງຊື່ນບານກັບເມຍຂອງມັນ».

Educational Q&A
Meritorious action (puṇya-karma) brings honour and happiness beyond this life; even a seemingly small being is elevated when its conduct is righteous.
A bird, accompanied by his wife, is shown ascending to heaven on a splendid vimāna, surrounded by innumerable celestial cars; he is honoured there because of his virtuous deeds and lives joyfully.
