राजपूजाविधानम् / Royal Reception Protocols during Āśvamedha Preparations
एवमत्र महाराज दक्षिणां त्रिगुणां कुरु । त्रित्वं ब्रजतु ते राजन् ब्राह्मणा ह्वात्र कारणम्
evaṃ atra mahārāja dakṣiṇāṃ triguṇāṃ kuru | tritvaṃ brajatu te rājan brāhmaṇā hy atra kāraṇam ||
毗湿摩波耶那说道：“因此，伟大的国王啊，就在此处赐予三倍的达克希那（祭祀酬礼）。大王啊，愿你这一次祭祀获得三次祭祀的地位，因为婆罗门确是此仪式中最主要的因由与决定性的施行者。”

Educational Q&A
The verse teaches that honoring the officiating Brāhmaṇas with generous dakṣiṇā is not merely transactional but ethically and ritually central: the efficacy and merit of a sacrifice depend on proper respect, support, and recompense to those who preserve and enact the Vedic rite.
Vaiśampāyana advises the king, within the context of a sacrificial performance, to give a threefold dakṣiṇā. He frames this generosity as elevating the single rite to the merit of three sacrifices, because the Brāhmaṇas are presented as the key agents enabling the yajña.
