People may have performed a variety of Vedic rites and sacrifices; they might even expound the contents of vedas and scriptures; they may be endowed with prosperity, own vast wealth and heaps of grain. But without moral character, they cannot earn a place in the Kingdom of God. Virtues are the most effective means for purifying the inner consciousness, for they prompt the person to discover what to do and how to do it. Only those who have earned good destiny can claim their excellence in discrimination. Adherence to virtues and discrimination is the raft that will ferry you across the ocean of flux and fear (bhava sagara). The person of virtues is automatically granted a place in the Kingdom of the Liberated. Whatever residual activity the virtuous person is engaged in, the impact of that activity will not impinge them. They will merge in Brahman, the embodiment of Supreme Bliss.
