The verse asserts moral causality: beings’ states and identities are conditioned by prior wholesome and unwholesome actions. Until liberation, karmic imprint persists across cycles, and in pralaya all manifested forms are withdrawn.
Primarily Sarga/Pratisarga framing with explicit mention of Pralaya (dissolution). It sets the karmic logic that underlies subsequent accounts of creation and re-creation.
The ‘known as such’ (khyātā) suggests that guṇa-karmic tendencies crystallize into recognizable ontological categories. Dissolution is not annihilation but reabsorption of names-and-forms into the causal ground.
