राजपूजाविधानम् / Royal Reception Protocols during Āśvamedha Preparations

न तेषां स्खलितं किंचिदासीच्चाप्यकृतं तथा | क्रममुक्तं च युक्त च चक्रुस्तत्र द्विजर्षभा:,उनके द्वारा उस यज्ञमें कहीं भी कोई भूल या त्रुटि नहीं होने पायी। कोई भी कर्म न तो छूटा और न अधूरा रहा। श्रेष्ठ ब्राह्मणोंने प्रत्येक कार्यको क्रमके अनुसार उचित रीतिसे पूरा किया

na teṣāṃ skhalitaṃ kiñcid āsīc cāpy akṛtaṃ tathā | kramamuktaṃ ca yuktaṃ ca cakrus tatra dvijarṣabhāḥ ||

Dijo Vaiśampāyana: En aquel sacrificio no se halló desliz ni falta alguna en su ejecución. Ningún rito fue omitido, y ninguno quedó inconcluso. Los más eminentes entre los nacidos dos veces realizaron cada acto en el orden debido y con la corrección apropiada: imagen de disciplina ritual y de deber cumplido con escrúpulo.

Educational Q&A

Dharma is upheld through careful, complete, and properly ordered action: duties should be performed without omission, without haste, and with appropriateness (yukta), reflecting integrity and disciplined responsibility.

During the Aśvamedha-related sacrificial proceedings, the leading brāhmaṇas conduct the rites so precisely that no mistake, omission, or incomplete act occurs; everything is performed in correct sequence and in a fitting manner.
