Shloka 14
राजपूजाविधानम् / Royal Reception Protocols during Āśvamedha Preparations
एवमत्र महाराज दक्षिणां त्रिगुणां कुरु । त्रित्वं ब्रजतु ते राजन् ब्राह्मणा ह्वात्र कारणम्
evaṃ atra mahārāja dakṣiṇāṃ triguṇāṃ kuru | tritvaṃ brajatu te rājan brāhmaṇā hy atra kāraṇam ||
ヴァイシャンパーヤナは言った。「それゆえ、大王よ、ここでダクシナー（祭儀の謝礼）を三倍にして授けなさい。王よ、あなたのこの一度の祭儀が三度の祭儀に等しい位階へ至らんことを。なぜなら、この儀礼において婆羅門たちこそがまさしく主要の因、決定的な担い手だからである。」

Educational Q&A
The verse teaches that honoring the officiating Brāhmaṇas with generous dakṣiṇā is not merely transactional but ethically and ritually central: the efficacy and merit of a sacrifice depend on proper respect, support, and recompense to those who preserve and enact the Vedic rite.
Vaiśampāyana advises the king, within the context of a sacrificial performance, to give a threefold dakṣiṇā. He frames this generosity as elevating the single rite to the merit of three sacrifices, because the Brāhmaṇas are presented as the key agents enabling the yajña.
