Kapālamocana-tīrtha (Auśanasa) and Balarāma’s Sarasvatī Pilgrimage

तत्र चैव महाराज दीक्षिते प्रपितामहे | यजतस्तस्य सत्रेण सर्वकामसमृद्धिना,महाराज! साक्षात्‌ ब्रह्माजीने उस यज्ञकी दीक्षा ली थी। उनके यज्ञ करते समय सबकी समस्त इच्छाएँ उस यज्ञद्वारा परिपूर्ण होती थीं

tatra caiva mahārāja dīkṣite prapitāmahe | yajatas tasya satreṇa sarvakāmasamṛddhinā ||

Vaiśampāyana berkata: “Di sana, wahai Raja, ketika Datuk Agung telah menerima dīkṣā (upacara penyucian dan pengikraran), baginda melaksanakan suatu satra yang agung, dikurniai kemampuan menunaikan segala hajat. Ketika baginda menjalankan korban itu, keinginan semua makhluk dipenuhi oleh kelimpahan yang terbit daripada yajña tersebut.”

Educational Q&A

The verse highlights the dharmic ideal that properly undertaken sacred duty (dīkṣā and yajña) sustains order and welfare: a righteous rite, performed with fullness and discipline, becomes a means by which collective needs are met rather than merely private gain.

Vaiśampāyana describes an occasion where the Grandsire (Brahmā) is consecrated for a great sacrificial session. As he performs the satra, it is portrayed as so efficacious and abundant that it brings fulfillment of desires for all present/concerned.
