Educational Q&A
The verse highlights the ethical-religious ideal that great undertakings should be grounded in yajña (disciplined, merit-generating action) and guided by legitimate spiritual authority—symbolized by Bṛhaspati leading the divine assembly.
Nārada describes a figure who intends to conduct various sacrifices at the golden base of the Himālaya, and notes that this person is associated with (or honored by) an assembly of divine lords including Indra, with Bṛhaspati at their head.
