Sarasvatī Tīrtha Itinerary — Balarāma’s Pilgrimage
चक्कुश्चैवं तथा राजन् भ्रातरस्त्रय एव च । तथा ते तु परिक्रम्य याज्यान् सर्वान् पशून् प्रति
cakkuś caiva tathā rājan bhrātaras traya eva ca | tathā te tu parikramya yājyān sarvān paśūn prati prācīṃ diśaṃ mahātmāna ājagmus te maharṣayaḥ ||
ヴァイシャンパーヤナは言った。「王よ、チャックとその二人の兄弟——三人の兄弟はそのように決して、あらゆる適格の施主のもとを巡り、ダクシナーとして家畜を求めた。定められた作法に従って彼らのために祭（ヤジュニャ）を執り行い、その司祭の務めによって多くの獣畜を得たのである。やがて、その大いなる魂をもつ聖仙たちは東方へと旅立った。」

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights a dharmic social ethic: ritual specialists sustain themselves through rightful recompense earned by properly performed sacrificial service, not by coercion or theft; wealth (here, livestock) is framed as a legitimate fruit of ordained duty.
Cakku and his two brothers travel among qualified patrons, perform sacrifices according to rule, receive many animals as their due, and then proceed onward toward the eastern direction.
