In response, Vishnu reveals the significance of living a righteous life, performing good deeds, and chanting His name to attain liberation.Vishnu also explains the journey of the soul after death, describing the path of light (uttarayana) for virtuous souls that leads to moksha and the path of darkness (dakshinayana) for those bound by material desires, which leads to rebirth.
