Vaiśampāyana

Educational Q&A

The verse emphasizes that sacred listening/recitation should be completed with a concrete act of ritual giving—here, a daśāṁśa-homa—so that devotion and learning are sealed by disciplined action and offering.

Vaiśampāyana concludes a set of instructions to the king, stating that a tenth-part fire-offering is also required in this context, and affirms that he has fully explained the prescribed observances.
