Incense, Lamp, and Bali Offerings; the Nahūṣa Dialogue
मानुष्यस्तत्र सर्वा: सम क्रियास्तस्य महात्मन: । प्रवृत्तास्त्रिदिवे राजन् दिव्याश्वैव सनातना:
mānuṣyas tatra sarvāḥ sama-kriyās tasya mahātmanaḥ | pravṛttās tridive rājan divyāś caiva sanātanāḥ ||
毗湿摩说道：“大王，在那三天界（Tridiva）之中，那位大心者那胡沙一切近似人间的职责与惯常行持仍不断被奉行；同样，诸天的神圣、永恒之仪轨与职分也在那里不绝如流。”

Educational Q&A
Even in heavenly realms, order (niyama) and dharma are sustained through ongoing prescribed actions—both those resembling human social duties and those that are distinctly divine and timeless. The verse underscores continuity of righteous conduct rather than a heaven of mere enjoyment.
Bhīṣma describes to the king the state of Nahūṣa in heaven: in Tridiva, the great king’s human-like observances and the eternal divine functions were actively maintained, indicating a structured, dharma-governed celestial life.
