divyamālyāmbaradharo divyagandhavibhūṣitaḥ | divyāṅgadadharo nityaṃ devaloke mahīyate ||
Wika ni Vaiśaṃpāyana: Nakabihis ng makalangit na mga kuwintas ng bulaklak at mga kasuotang banal, pinahiran at pinabanguhan ng mga samyo ng langit, at may suot na maningning na mga pulseras sa bisig, siya’y laging pinararangalan sa daigdig ng mga diyos.

The verse conveys that the fruits of dharma manifest as honor and splendor in higher realms: ethical merit leads to elevated status, symbolized by divine ornaments and continual reverence in Devaloka.
Vaiśaṃpāyana describes a figure in the heavenly realm who is visibly marked by celestial attire, fragrance, and ornaments, and who is perpetually honored among the gods—an image of posthumous exaltation following a life aligned with dharma.
