毗湿摩说道：“人将从一切罪业中解脱——既包括由自身行为所生之罪，也包括因与他人行为相牵连而染上的罪。至此，诸天之中所说的四种‘类别’已叙述完毕。凡清晨起身，诵念赞颂这些天神者，便能脱离全部罪垢的积聚，无论是自作之罪，还是因接触他人而得之罪。”

Educational Q&A
Regular morning remembrance and praise of the described deities is presented as a purifying discipline that frees a person from sins arising from one’s own actions and from moral taint acquired through association with others.
Bhishma concludes a prior description of a fourfold classification among deities and states the fruit (phala) of reciting their praise at dawn: release from the accumulated burden of sin, including that gained through contact with others.
