Yamapatha (The Road of Yama), Dāna-Phala, and the Imperishable Fruition of Karma
गोदानेन नरो याति सर्वसौख्यसमन्वितः । भूमिदो गृहदश्चैव विमाने सर्वसंपदि ॥ २१ ॥
godānena naro yāti sarvasaukhyasamanvitaḥ | bhūmido gṛhadaścaiva vimāne sarvasaṃpadi || 21 ||
گائے کا دان کرنے سے انسان ہر طرح کی خوشیوں سے آراستہ ہو کر پرلوک کو جاتا ہے۔ اور جو زمین یا گھر کا دان کرے وہ بھی تمام دولت کے ساتھ وِمان (آسمانی سواری) پاتا ہے۔

It frames dāna (charitable giving) as a concrete dharmic act whose fruit is sukha and saṃpatti in the hereafter—especially emphasizing go-dāna, bhūmi-dāna, and gṛha-dāna as high-merit gifts.
While not explicitly naming a deity, it supports bhakti-oriented dharma by encouraging selfless giving—an essential devotional disposition (tyāga and sevā) that purifies the giver and supports righteous living.
Ritual-dharma application is implied: dāna is to be performed according to proper injunctions (kalpa-style procedural correctness), where the type of gift and intention determine the stated fruits.
