Shloka 58
कालयुक्तधर्मविवेकः
Discerning Dharma in Accord with Time
ईदृश: पुरुषोत्कर्षो देवि देवत्वमश्रुते । उपपन्नान् सुखान् भोगानुपाश्चाति मुदा युतः:
īdṛśaḥ puruṣotkarṣo devi devatvam aśnute | upapannān sukhān bhogān upāśnāti mudā yutaḥ ||
Maheshvara bersabda: “Wahai Dewi, lelaki yang seunggul demikian mencapai martabat ketuhanan. Dengan sukacita, dia menikmati kenikmatan yang menyenangkan yang datang kepadanya dengan sendirinya—diperoleh dengan wajar—tatkala berdiam di alam para dewa.”
श्रीमहेश्वर उवाच
Educational Q&A
The verse teaches that a person of exemplary conduct—especially one grounded in harmlessness and righteous living—attains a divine state and enjoys legitimate, naturally accruing सुख (happiness) and भोग (enjoyments) in the heavenly realm.
Maheśvara addresses Devī and concludes a praise of an ideal ethical type of person, stating the फल (result): such a person reaches देवत्व (divinity) and experiences joyful enjoyments that are ‘upapanna’—properly obtained—among the gods.
