Educational Q&A

When one receives what is due through proper procedure and disciplined conduct, it leads to inner harmony and invites benevolent response—here symbolized by the gods granting desired boons.

The narrator states that the gods, being pleased, grant the recipient the boons he mentally wishes for, after he has duly accepted the allotted portions in the prescribed manner.
