Shloka 29
कर्मनाशाभावः, गर्भे जीवप्रवेशः, आचारधर्मोपदेशः
Karma’s Non-Extinction, Jīva’s Entry into the Embryo, and Instruction on Conduct-Dharma
तस्य कालपरीमाणमकरोत् स पितामह: । भूतेषु परिवृत्तिं च पुनरावृत्तिमेव च,पितामहने जीवके लिये नियत समयतक शरीर धारण किये रहनेकी, भिन्न-भिन्न योनियोंमें भ्रमण करनेकी और परलोकसे लौटकर फिर इस लोकमें जन्म लेने आदिकी भी व्यवस्था की है
tasya kālaparimāṇam akarot sa pitāmahaḥ | bhūteṣu parivṛttiṃ ca punarāvṛttim eva ca ||
اس جیو کے لیے پِتامہ نے زمانے کی مقدار مقرر کی—کہ کتنی مدت تک جسم دھارنا ہے؛ اور یونیوں میں گردش، نیز پرلوک سے لوٹ کر پھر اسی لوک میں دوبارہ آنا—ان سب کی بھی ترتیب ٹھہرا دی۔

Educational Q&A
The verse teaches that lifespan and the cycle of transmigration and return (rebirth) operate under an ordained cosmic order: the Creator sets limits of embodied existence and the recurring movement through births, implying moral causality and regulation rather than arbitrariness.
A Brahmin speaker explains the structure of worldly existence: Brahmā (pitāmaha) has established how long beings remain embodied and how they circulate among forms of life and return from the other world to be born again, situating the discussion within a broader reflection on destiny, karma, and dharma.
