नारद–असित (देवल) संवादः — भूतप्रभवाप्यय, इन्द्रिय-गुण-विवेक, क्षेत्रज्ञ-तत्त्व
यज्ञाड़ान्यपि चैतानि यज्ञोक्तान्यनुपूर्वश: । विधिना विधियुक्तानि धारयन्ति परस्परम्
yajñādāny api caitāni yajñoktāny anupūrvaśaḥ | vidhinā vidhiyuktāni dhārayanti parasparam ||
Kapila berkata: “Ini pun—mulai dari yajña dan seterusnya—adalah unsur-unsur yang disebut berurutan dalam ajaran tentang yajña. Bila masing-masing dijalankan menurut aturannya sendiri dan dengan disiplin yang semestinya, semuanya saling menopang dan meneguhkan.”

Educational Q&A
Kapila emphasizes that dharmic practices taught in the context of yajña form an ordered system: when each is carried out with correct procedure and discipline, the practices reinforce each other and collectively uphold the moral-religious life.
In the Śānti Parva’s instructional dialogue, Kapila is explaining a structured sequence of yajña-related duties or components, stressing proper observance (vidhi) and their mutual support as part of a coherent ethical-ritual framework.
