मरुत्तोपाख्यान-प्रस्तावः — Genealogy to Marutta and the Logistics of Royal Sacrifice
य ईजे हयमेधानां शतेन विधिवत प्रभु: । याजयामास यं विद्वान् स्वयमेवाड्िरा: प्रभु:,उन प्रभावशाली नरेशने विधिपूर्वक सौ अश्वमेध यज्ञोंका अनुष्ठान किया था। साक्षात् विद्वान प्रभु, अंगिरा मुनिने ही उनका यज्ञ कराया था
ya īje hayamedhānāṁ śatena vidhivat prabhuḥ | yājayāmāsa yaṁ vidvān svayam evāṅgirāḥ prabhuḥ ||
ಆ ಪ್ರಭಾವಶಾಲಿ ನರೇಶನು ವಿಧಿಪೂರ್ವಕವಾಗಿ ನೂರು ಅಶ್ವಮೇಧ ಯಜ್ಞಗಳನ್ನು ನೆರವೇರಿಸಿದನು. ಸాక్షಾತ್ ವಿದ್ಯಾವಂತನೂ ಪೂಜ್ಯನೂ ಆದ ಅಂಗಿರಾ ಮುನಿಯೇ ಸ್ವತಃ ಋತ್ವಿಜನಾಗಿ ಆ ಯಾಗಕರ್ಮವನ್ನು ನಡೆಸಿಸಿದನು।
व्यास उवाच
Ritual power and royal authority are portrayed as dharmically valid when performed strictly according to prescribed rule (vidhivat) and under the guidance of a true Vedic knower; merit is tied to disciplined observance rather than mere display.
Vyāsa describes a powerful king who completed one hundred Aśvamedha sacrifices, emphasizing that the sage Aṅgirā personally officiated—highlighting both the scale of the king’s rites and the authoritative priestly sanction behind them.
