Gārhasthya-dharma: Vāsudeva–Pṛthivī-saṃvāda
Householder Duties and Daily Offerings
अग्नीषोमं वैश्वदेवं धान्वन्तर्यमनन्तरम् । प्रजानां पतये चैव पृथग्घोमो विधीयते,पहले अग्नि और सोमको, फिर विश्वेदेवोंको, तदनन्तर धन्वन्तरिको, तत्पश्चात् प्रजापतिको पृथक्-पृथक् आहुति देनेका विधान है
agnīṣomaṃ vaiśvadevaṃ dhānvantaryam anantaram | prajānāṃ pataye caiva pṛthag homo vidhīyate ||
Vāyu dit : «Dans le rite sacrificiel, des oblations distinctes sont prescrites : d’abord à Agni et Soma ensemble, puis aux Viśvedevas, ensuite à Dhanvantari, et après cela à Prajāpati, seigneur des créatures.» Le verset souligne l’ordre discipliné du culte : le dharma est maintenu lorsque chaque offrande est faite séparément et avec respect, sans confusion ni négligence.

Educational Q&A
Dharma in ritual life is expressed through correct sequence and distinctness of offerings: each deity is honored with a specific, separate oblation, reflecting clarity, reverence, and adherence to prescribed rule (vidhi).
Vāyu is instructing about sacrificial procedure, listing the order in which oblations should be offered—Agni-Soma first, then the Viśvedevas, then Dhanvantari, and finally Prajāpati—emphasizing that each is to be offered separately.
