Shraddhatrayavibhaga Yoga
Tatparya Nirnaya :- By performing only sacrifices, the symbolic heavens are attained. This place is the habitation of the jivas who are similar to Indra and other gods who had fallen from their position. Since they were not receptive to Sri Vishnu or their desires exceeded their capabilities they attain such worlds but not the nether world. But those who perform energetic sacrifices and those who perform works which are prohibited will attain the eternal nether world without any doubt. They are often saatviks whose action are a mixture of both raajasik and taamasik. Others also perform actions which are not in consonance with their nature falling back to their natural attributes. Performance of their work according their respective natural attributes alone brings them better fruits. Performing actions contrary to their attributes brings lesser fruit. That which brings more fruit should be considered as their natural attribute,thus in Padma Purana.
