Gārhasthya-dharma: Vāsudeva–Pṛthivī-saṃvāda
Householder Duties and Daily Offerings
अग्नीषोमं वैश्वदेवं धान्वन्तर्यमनन्तरम् । प्रजानां पतये चैव पृथग्घोमो विधीयते,पहले अग्नि और सोमको, फिर विश्वेदेवोंको, तदनन्तर धन्वन्तरिको, तत्पश्चात् प्रजापतिको पृथक्-पृथक् आहुति देनेका विधान है
agnīṣomaṃ vaiśvadevaṃ dhānvantaryam anantaram | prajānāṃ pataye caiva pṛthag homo vidhīyate ||
Vāyu berkata: “Dalam upacara korban, persembahan yang berasingan telah ditetapkan—mula-mula kepada Agni dan Soma bersama-sama, kemudian kepada Viśvedevas, seterusnya kepada Dhanvantari, dan selepas itu kepada Prajāpati, tuan segala makhluk.” Ayat ini menegaskan tertib disiplin dalam pemujaan: dharma ditegakkan apabila setiap persembahan dilakukan dengan jelas dan penuh hormat, tanpa kekeliruan atau kelalaian.

Educational Q&A
Dharma in ritual life is expressed through correct sequence and distinctness of offerings: each deity is honored with a specific, separate oblation, reflecting clarity, reverence, and adherence to prescribed rule (vidhi).
Vāyu is instructing about sacrificial procedure, listing the order in which oblations should be offered—Agni-Soma first, then the Viśvedevas, then Dhanvantari, and finally Prajāpati—emphasizing that each is to be offered separately.
