Atithi-prāpti and the Brāhmaṇa’s Deliberation on Triadic Dharma (अतिथिप्राप्तिः धर्मत्रयविचारश्च)
सर्वार्थचिन्तका लोके यथाधीकारनिर्मिता: । “तुमलोग यज्ञमें भाग लेकर यजमानको उसका फल देनेमें प्रवृत्त हो जगतमें अपने अधिकारके अनुसार सबके सभी मनोरथोंका चिन्तन करते हुए सब लोगोंको उन्नतिशील बनाओ ।।
“In the world you were appointed, each according to your proper sphere, as those who deliberate on all ends. Take your shares in the sacrifice and strive to bestow its fruit upon the yajamāna; considering, within your authority, the wishes of all, make all beings advance. And whatever rites and acts you set in motion will be honored as deeds made auspicious by the fruit of right endeavor.”
