समीहितार्थ संसिद्धिर्लभ्यते पुण्यभारतः । तच्च पुण्यं भवेद्विप्र श्रुतिवर्त्मसभाजनात्
samīhitārtha saṃsiddhirlabhyate puṇyabhārataḥ | tacca puṇyaṃ bhavedvipra śrutivartmasabhājanāt
Keberhasilan dalam tujuan yang dihajati diperoleh melalui himpunan puṇya (pahala kebajikan). Dan puṇya itu, wahai Brāhmaṇa, lahir daripada memuliakan jalan yang ditetapkan oleh Śruti (Veda).
Skanda
Tirtha: Avimukta (contextual)
Type: kshetra
Listener: Vipra/Brāhmaṇa (addressed)
Scene: Skanda explains a moral causality: desired aims succeed through merit, and merit comes from honoring the Vedic path; listeners appear contemplative, with Vedic symbols (fire altar, manuscripts).
Worldly and spiritual success is rooted in puṇya, and puṇya is strengthened by respecting and following Vedic dharma (Śruti).
The immediate discourse belongs to Avimukta/Kāśī Māhātmya, though this verse states a general dharma principle supporting kṣetra-fruit.
Reverence for and adherence to Śruti-based conduct (Śruti-vartma) is prescribed as the generator of merit.
