Verse 3.53.34

अतो ज्ञानविवेकेन पुण्येनाथ वरेण च ।
पुण्यदेहेन गच्छन्ति परं लोकमनेन तु ॥ ३४ ॥

ato jñānavivekena puṇyenātha vareṇa ca |
puṇyadehena gacchanti paraṃ lokamanena tu || 34 ||

But it is by virtue of one's knowledge and discrimination, and by his own merit and divine blessing, that he acquires a saintly form (nature); wherewith he ascends to the higher region, as you have done with this body of yours.
