Shloka 213
Nṛga-upākhyāna: Brāhmaṇa-sva and the Consequence of Misappropriated Gift-Cattle (कृकलास-रूपे नृगोपाख्यानम्)
यस्मिन् देशे करिष्यध्वं यज्ञान् काश्यपनन्दना: | ब्रह्माजीने कहा--काश्यपनन्दन सुरश्रेष्ठणण! तुमलोग पृथ्वीके जिस प्रदेशमें यज्ञ करोगे, वही भूभाग मैं तुम्हें दे रहा हूँ
yasmin deśe kariṣyadhvaṃ yajñān kāśyapanandanāḥ |
ビーシュマは言った。「カश्यパの子孫たちよ、汝らがいずれの地で祭祀（ヤジュニャ yajña）を営もうとも、その地そのものが汝らに与えられる。」この言葉は、祭祀を単なる儀礼ではなくダルマにかなう行為として示し、武力ではなく聖なる務めによって土地の定住と守護の正当性が立つことを語っている。

The verse links rightful possession and stability of land to dharmic action—especially yajña—suggesting that sacred duty and beneficent ritual provide moral legitimacy for settlement and authority.
Bhīṣma, in his instructional discourse, quotes or conveys a grant-like declaration addressed to the descendants of Kaśyapa: wherever they perform sacrifices, that region is assigned to them, emphasizing the sanctifying power of yajña.
