Discerning Dharma in Accord with Time
शुभे: कर्मफलैदेवि मयैते परिकीर्तिता: । स्वर्गमार्गपरा भूय: किं त्वं श्रोतुमिहेच्छसि
śubhaiḥ karmaphalaiḥ devi mayā ete parikīrtitāḥ | svargamārga-parā bhūyaḥ kiṃ tvaṃ śrotum ihecchasi, devi ||
हे देवि! शुभ कर्मांच्या फळांमुळे जे स्वर्गमार्गावर स्थित आहेत, त्यांचे वर्णन मी येथे केले आहे. आता या विषयात तुला आणखी काय ऐकायचे आहे?
श्रीमहेश्वर उवाच
Educational Q&A
Meritorious actions (śubha-karma) yield specific fruits and can orient a person toward the path to heaven; after explaining these results, the teacher invites the listener to inquire further, emphasizing guided learning and ethical causality (karma-phala).
Mahādeva addresses Devī, stating that he has already recounted the auspicious fruits of actions connected with attaining heaven, and then asks what additional topic she wishes to hear next—marking a transition point in their instructional dialogue.
