मानसतीर्थ-शौचप्रशंसा | Praise of the ‘Mental Tīrtha’ and the Marks of Purity
नूपुराणां निनादेन मेखलानां च नि:स्वनै: । उसे अग्निकी ज्वालाके समान प्रकाशमान, हंस और मयूरोंसे सेवित, सुवर्णजटित उत्तम विमान प्राप्त होता है और वह अप्सराओंके अंकमें सोकर उन्हींके कांचीकलाप तथा नूपुरोंकी मधुर ध्वनिसे जगाया जाता है ।।
nūpurāṇāṁ ninādena mekhalānāṁ ca niḥsvanaiḥ | agnijvālāsamaprakhyaṁ haṁsamayūrasevitaṁ suvarṇajaṭitaṁ uttamaṁ vimānaṁ prāpnoti, apsarāṇām aṅke suptaḥ tābhir eva kāñcīkalāpanūpurāṇāṁ madhuradhvanibhiḥ prabodhyate || koṭisahasraṁ varṣāṇāṁ trīṇi koṭiśatāni ca, lomnāṁ pramāṇena samaṁ brahmaloke mahīyate ||
毗湿摩说：因足铃的叮当与腰带的轻响，他被唤醒。他得一乘辉煌天车（vimāna），灿若火焰，金饰璀璨，天鹅与孔雀侍从左右；他枕卧于阿普萨拉的膝上，又被她们宝带与足铃的甘美声所惊起。在以无量年数计的漫长时日里——按所述譬喻，以“毛发之数”来衡量——他在梵天世界中受尊崇礼敬。

The passage emphasizes karmic fruition: righteous or meritorious conduct yields refined, exalted enjoyments and honor in higher realms, described through sensory images (celestial music, ornaments, and a radiant vimana) to convey the magnitude of the reward.
Bhishma continues his discourse on dharma and the fruits of virtuous acts, describing how a person gains a golden, flame-bright celestial chariot, is attended by swans and peacocks, enjoys the company of apsarases, and is honored in Brahmaloka for an immense, numerically expressed duration.
