Shloka 27
चक्कुः सुवर्णकर्तारो येषां संख्या न विद्यते । तस्यैव च समीपे तु यज्ञवाटो बभूव ह
cakṣuḥ suvarṇakartāro yeṣāṃ saṅkhyā na vidyate | tasyaiva ca samīpe tu yajñavāṭo babhūva ha ||
व्यास म्हणाले—सुवर्णकार इतके होते की त्यांची संख्या मोजता येत नव्हती. त्या सुवर्णमय पर्वताच्या समीपच यज्ञवाट उभी राहिली आणि तेथेच यज्ञकर्म प्रवर्तित झाले.

The verse highlights that immense resources and labor gain ethical meaning when directed toward dharma—here, the disciplined performance of a Vedic rite. Magnitude (countless goldsmiths, abundant gold) is not praised as luxury, but as properly organized support for a sanctioned public act.
Vyāsa describes the establishment of a yajña-enclosure near a golden mountain and notes that innumerable gold artisans were engaged, indicating the grand scale of the Aśvamedha preparations and the commencement of ritual activity.
