The verse links sovereignty to dharma through yajña: a king’s authority is portrayed as validated not only by conquest but by undertaking a major public rite (Rājasūya) that symbolizes responsibility, order, and legitimate rule.
Nārada recounts that King Hariścandra, after subduing the whole earth with its natural domains, conducted the great royal sacrifice called the Rājasūya, highlighting his imperial status and ritual consecration.
