Yama's Description of Karma Vipaka and the Supremacy of Devi Yajna
तं न त्यजति भूमिश्च जन्मनां शतकं परम् । श्रीमांश्च धनवांश्चैव पुत्रवांश्च प्रजेश्वरः
taṃ na tyajati bhūmiśca janmanāṃ śatakaṃ param | śrīmāṃśca dhanavāṃścaiva putravāṃśca prajeśvaraḥ
ଶହେ ଜନ୍ମ ପର୍ଯ୍ୟନ୍ତ ପୃଥିବୀ ତାଙ୍କୁ ତ୍ୟାଗ କରେ ନାହିଁ । ସେ ଶ୍ରୀମାନ, ଧନବାନ, ପୁତ୍ରବାନ ଏବଂ ପ୍ରଜାପତି ହୁଅନ୍ତି ।
