Type: kshetra
Scene: A symbolic time-wheel divided into four arcs labeled: 3 days, 3 fortnights, 3 months, 3 years; on one side bright merit motifs (lotus, lamp), on the other dark sin motifs (smoke, thorns), all under the gaze of a calm liṅga.
Karmic fruition may be swift or delayed, and its timing corresponds to the intensity of one’s merit or wrongdoing.
No tīrtha is named; the verse provides a general doctrine of karmic timing.
No specific rite is prescribed; it states the timeframe in which results may manifest.
