Human beings, departed manes, deities, (sacrificial) animal, beasts and birds, and all other creatures mobile and immobile, by always devoting themselves to penances, become successful by penance along. Similarly the celestials gifted with great powers of illusion, have attained to the celestial region.
मनुष्याः पितरो देवाः पशवो मृगपक्षिणः। यानि चान्यानि भूतानि सानि स्थावराणि च॥ तपः परायणा नित्यं सिद्ध्यन्ते तपसा सदा। तथैव तपसा देवा महामाया दिवं गताः॥
