FAQs

Karma ripens in sequence: even one destined for svarga may first undergo the consequences of prior wrongdoing.

The episode belongs to the Vastrāpatha-kṣetra māhātmya in Prabhāsa, where divine speech confirms moral causality around the tirtha narrative.

No explicit rite is prescribed; the verse presents a karmic oracle and its order of fruition.
