Narada said: "The hall of Shakra is divine, shining, won by his merits, created by Shakra himself, O Kauravya, radiant as the sun; a hundred yojanas wide, a hundred and fifty long, five yojanas high, sky-borne and moving at will; free from old age, grief and weariness, untroubled, auspicious, beautiful, furnished with chambers and seats, delightful, adorned with divine trees."

Here the first word about the celestial hall is 'won by merits.' It is significant that even the abode of the king of the gods is not eternal in itself but earned through deeds: even heaven is the fruit of good works, not a beginningless possession. Thus the scripture quietly reminds us that what is gained by deeds is also sustained by deeds; and next it reveals Indra seated within it.
