सगरयज्ञाश्वहरणम्
The Stolen Sacrificial Horse of Sagara
यज्ञच्छिद्रं भवत्येतत्सर्वेषामशिवाय न:।तत्तथा क्रियतां राजन् यथाऽच्छिद्र: क्रतुर्भवेत्।।1.39.10।।
yajñacchidraṃ bhavaty etat sarveṣām aśivāya naḥ | tat tathā kriyatāṃ rājan yathācchidraḥ kratur bhavet ||
Đây sẽ thành khuyết điểm trong tế lễ, đem điềm chẳng lành cho tất cả chúng ta. Vậy, tâu Đại vương, xin sắp đặt sao cho nghi lễ được tiến hành không chút tì vết.
'This flaw in sacrifice will be inauspicious for all of us. Hence O king! do everything which will ensure flawlessness to this sacrifice'.
Dharma here is meticulous responsibility: sacred acts must be performed without negligence, since collective welfare is tied to correctness and integrity in duty.
During a sacrificial context, a concern is raised that a defect in the ritual would bring inauspicious results, so corrective action is urged.
Pramāda-rahitatā (freedom from carelessness): vigilance and thoroughness in carrying out one’s obligations.
