Yuddha-yajña-vyākhyāna (The Battle as Sacrifice): Ambarīṣa–Indra Saṃvāda
यस्य वेदिरुपस्तीर्णा तस्य लोका यथा मम । जिसके युद्ध-यज्ञकी वेदी नीले चमड़ेकी बनी हुई म्यानके भीतर रखी जानेवाली तलवारों तथा परिघके समान मोटी-मोटी भुजाओंसे बिछ जाती है
yasya vedir upastīrṇā tasya lokā yathā mama |
Ambarīṣa nói: “Ai có bàn thờ của chiến-yajña được trải bày đúng phép—bằng những thanh kiếm đặt trong vỏ da xanh và những cánh tay dày chắc như chùy sắt parigha—người ấy cũng đạt những cõi như ta.”
अम्बरीष उवाच
Properly performed, duly prepared ritual action—done in accordance with dharma—leads to definite spiritual results; attainment of higher realms is linked to right conduct and correct performance rather than mere claim or status.
Ambarīṣa speaks about the fruit of a correctly prepared sacrificial altar, asserting that whoever completes the rite with due preparation attains the same exalted worlds that he himself attained.
