[आ] किंस्वित कृत्वा लभते तात लॊकान; मर्त्यः शरेष्ठांस तपसा विद्यया वा तन मे पृष्टः शंस सर्वं यथावच; छुभाँल लॊकान येन गच्छेत करमेण ॥ १-८५-२१ ॥

'Ashtaka queried, "O revered one, by what means do individuals reach those exalted realms from which they do not return to this earthly existence? Is it through ascetic practices, or is it through the acquisition of knowledge? Moreover, how does one progressively ascend to those blissful abodes? I ask you to elucidate fully on this matter."' ॥ 1-85-21 ॥
