Educational Q&A
The verse highlights the idea of graded spiritual ascent: through extraordinary tapas and purity, a sage may move beyond one realm to higher celestial spheres, implying that inner discipline and merit shape one’s post-mortem trajectory.
The narrator reports a vision/observation in which the great sage Jaigīṣavya is seen rising further and proceeding toward Somaloka, described as a water-suffused celestial region.
