毗湿摩波耶那说道：昆蒂（普利塔）从公公处领受了那份以慈爱相赠的财礼，心中暗自欢悦。她以此财物，兴办规模宏大的集体功德之业——广行施舍与宗教供养，以利众人。

Educational Q&A
Wealth received with goodwill should be converted into dharmic benefit: gratitude and inner joy are expressed through dāna and public-minded puṇya, turning personal gain into collective welfare.
Kuntī receives an affectionate gift from her father-in-law and, pleased at heart, uses it to sponsor large-scale communal meritorious acts—charities and religious benefactions performed for many people.
