As soon as one dies, gives up this body—he does not die; he changes the body—now, the next body . . . here is a duration of changing body. Say for a hundred years the changing is going on. Then, after that, when he changes this body, then there is daiva-netreṇa, the judgment.

The Bhāgavata also says daiva-netreṇa. Daiva-netreṇa means "under the leadership of the Supreme." As soon as one dies, gives up this body—he does not die; he changes the body—now, the next body . . . here is a duration of changing body. Say for a hundred years the changing is going on. Then, after that, when he changes this body, then there is daiva-netreṇa, the judgment: "What kind of body should be awarded this living entity." That is called daiva-netreṇa. And when it is decided that "He has done such and such thing; therefore he should be promoted," "He has done such and such thing; he should be degraded," "He has done such and such thing; therefore he should go back to home, back to Godhead"—all these judgments are taken. Then he's offered.

There is the judgment, supreme judgment: "He has done like this. All right, let him be promoted in the heavenly planet." He goes there. Ābrahma-bhuvanāl lokāḥ punar āvartino 'rjuna ([[Vanisource:BG 8.16 (1972)|BG 8.16]]). Ābrahma-loka. The highest planetary system, Brahmaloka, he can go. That is also required superior judgment, what he has done for being promoted. Janmaiśvarya-śruta-śrībhiḥ ([[Vanisource:SB 1.8.26|SB 1.8.26]]). Janma, to take birth in high-class family, to become very rich—they are not accidental. There is background, daiva-netreṇa, by the superior judgment. There are so many things to be learned.
