Shloka 25
Nārada’s Darśana of Viśvarūpa Nārāyaṇa and the Caturmūrti Doctrine (नारदस्य नारायणदर्शनं चतुर्मूर्तिविचारश्च)
अनेन क्रमयोगेन बहुजातिषु कर्मणाम् । हित्वा शुभाशुभं॑ कर्म मोक्षो नामेह लभ्यते,इस तरह क्रमशः नाना प्रकारके कर्मोका अनुष्ठान करते हुए शुभाशुभ कर्मोंकी आसक्तिका परित्याग करनेसे यहाँ मोक्षकी प्राप्ति होती है
anena kramayogena bahujātiṣu karmaṇām | hitvā śubhāśubhaṃ karma mokṣo nāmeha labhyate ||
जनक म्हणाला—या क्रमयोगाने, अनेक जन्मांत नानाविध कर्मे करत असतानाही, शुभ व अशुभ—दोन्ही कर्मांवरील आसक्ती सोडल्याने येथे ‘मोक्ष’ नावाची सिद्धी प्राप्त होते.

Educational Q&A
Liberation is attained through a gradual discipline (krama-yoga) in which one continues to act, yet relinquishes clinging to the moral/ritual polarity of ‘good’ and ‘bad’ actions—i.e., abandoning possessiveness and self-centered attachment to results and identity built on merit or sin.
King Janaka is speaking in a didactic setting within the Śānti Parva, presenting a philosophical instruction: over many lives of practice and duty, one matures into detachment, and through that renunciation of attachment to action’s dualities, one reaches mokṣa.
