ସେଠାରେ, ଏପରି ଅଧର୍ମଜନ୍ୟ ‘ଦାନ’କୁ ଏଡ଼ାଇଥିବା ବ୍ୟକ୍ତିଙ୍କ ସହ ପ୍ରସନ୍ନ ମହାଲକ୍ଷ୍ମୀ ନିବାସ କରନ୍ତି। ସେହି ଭାବରେ ବାଣିଜ୍ୟ, ନୀଚଙ୍କ ସେବା ଓ ଜୀବିକାର୍ଥେ ବେଦାଧ୍ୟୟନ ମଧ୍ୟ ପରିହାର୍ଯ୍ୟ।
Sūta (deduced, Brāhma Khaṇḍa dharma-narration context)
Scene: A householder turning away from a tainted gift; Mahālakṣmī appears seated on a lotus within the home, indicating prosperity born of purity; symbols of trade/service/paid recitation shown as temptations set aside.
Prosperity (Lakṣmī) is linked to purity of means—wealth should be earned and received without adharma.
No tīrtha is mentioned; the verse speaks of dharmic livelihood and the presence of Lakṣmī.
It emphasizes refusing improper ‘gifts’ (dāna-vāraṇa) and cautions against livelihoods/actions that compromise dharma.
