Shloka 10
धन-यज्ञ-दानविवेकः
Wealth, Sacrifice, and Disciplined Giving
यज्ञाय सृष्टानि धनानि धात्रा यज्ञोद्दिष्ट: पुरुषो रक्षिता च । तस्मात् सर्व यज्ञ एवोपयोज्यं धनं ततो5नन्तर एव काम:
yajñāya sṛṣṭāni dhanāni dhātrā yajñoddiṣṭaḥ puruṣo rakṣitā ca | tasmāt sarvaṁ yajña evopayojyaṁ dhanaṁ tato 'nantara eva kāmaḥ ||
विधात्याने यज्ञासाठीच धनाची निर्मिती केली आहे आणि यज्ञाच्या हेतूसाठीच त्याचे रक्षण करणारा पुरुष उत्पन्न केला आहे. म्हणून सर्व धन यज्ञातच उपयोगात आणावे; मग त्या यज्ञामुळेच लवकर यजमानाच्या कामना सिद्ध होतात.

Educational Q&A
Wealth is presented as divinely purposed for yajña (sacrificial giving and ritual obligation). Using resources in yajña sustains dharma and, as a consequence, brings legitimate fulfillment of desires to the sacrificer.
A speaker named Devastāna states a doctrinal rationale: the Creator made wealth and the human protector/agent with yajña as their aim. From this premise he concludes that wealth should be directed into yajña, which then yields the sacrificer’s desired results.
