राजपूजाविधानम् / Royal Reception Protocols during Āśvamedha Preparations
न तेषां स्खलितं किंचिदासीच्चाप्यकृतं तथा | क्रममुक्तं च युक्त च चक्रुस्तत्र द्विजर्षभा:
na teṣāṃ skhalitaṃ kiñcid āsīc cāpy akṛtaṃ tathā | kramamuktaṃ ca yuktaṃ ca cakrus tatra dvijarṣabhāḥ ||
न तेषां स्खलितं किञ्चिदासीन्नाप्यकृतं तथा । न च क्रमविपर्यासो न च किञ्चिद् व्यतिक्रमः । द्विजर्षभास्तु ते तत्र सर्वं कर्म यथाक्रमम् । युक्तं च विधिवत् चक्रुः परिशुद्धेन कर्मणा ॥
वैशम्पायन उवाच
Dharma is upheld through careful, complete, and properly ordered action: duties should be performed without omission, without haste, and with appropriateness (yukta), reflecting integrity and disciplined responsibility.
During the Aśvamedha-related sacrificial proceedings, the leading brāhmaṇas conduct the rites so precisely that no mistake, omission, or incomplete act occurs; everything is performed in correct sequence and in a fitting manner.
