Thus ends the octet on Yama composed by Savithri which occurs in the first chapter of Brahma Vaivartha Maha Purana.
The above verses in praise of Lord Yama - the god of death - are from Devi Bhagavatam (9-31). Savitri asked many questions about the paths taken by jivas (souls) after death and Yama answers them in detail. In the course of his reply Yama described the glory of Devi. Savitri was very much pleased with the answers given by the god of death and in these verses praised him in gratitude. The last verse says that those who recite the verses daily in the morning will be free from sins and also from fear of death.

Nachiketa - His Disciple

“O Grandisre Bhishma! kindly tell me the fruits accrued on account of Godaanaa.” asked Dharmaja.
“O Dharmaja! in the past, there was a saint called Uddaalaka. His son was Nachiketa. One day, Uddaalaka called Nachiketa and asked him to bring Samidhas(firewood), Kalasa(small vessel) and flowers which he forgot on the banks of the river. Nachiketa went there and did not find them as those articles were washed by the tides. Nachiketa came back and reported the same to his father. Uddaalaka was enraged with wrath.
“Why you have come here. Go to Yama” Uddaalaka cursed Nachiketa. Though Nachiketa fell upon the feet of his father, his Atma was taken to Yama and dead body of Nachiketa was lying there. Uddaalaka was lamenting for the death of his son. Next day morning, Nachiketa opened his eyes as if he awoke from sleep. Uddaalaka hugged his son “Omy son you have come back from Yama. How it happened” asked Uddaalaka.
“O my father, as per your word, I went to Yama. Yama received me and offered me a seat. “Nachiketa! your father asked you to visit me. You are not destined to die now. Hence you go back to your father” said Yama. I requested Yama to show me Punya Lokas. He has personally taken me to all Punya Lokas in a well decorated chariot. I found several people enjoying heavenly pleasures. I asked Yama about them.
“O Nachiketa! these are all persons who gave cows to brahmins in Godaanaa and they are enjoying the fruits of Godaana.” said Yama. Then I saluted Yama and came back” said Nachiketa to Uddaalaka.
Therefore, Dharmaja! that is the answer to your question.” said Bhishma.
