Asita Devala Observes Jaigīṣavya’s Yogic Attainment and Chooses Mokṣa-dharma (देवल-जैगीषव्योपाख्यानम्)
यत्र रामो महाभागो भार्गव: सुमहातपा:,जहाँ महातपस्वी भृगुवंशी महाभाग परशुरामजीने बारंबार क्षत्रियनरेशोंका संहार करके इस पृथ्वीको जीतनेके पश्चात् मुनिश्रेष्ठ कश्यपको आचार्यरूपसे आगे रखकर वाजपेय तथा एक सौ अभश्वमेध-यज्ञद्वारा भगवानका पूजन किया और दक्षिणारूपमें समुद्रोंसहित यह सारी पृथ्वी दे दी
yatra rāmo mahābhāgo bhārgavaḥ sumahātapāḥ, kṣatriyanṛpasaṃhāraṃ kṛtvā punaḥ punaḥ pṛthivīm imāṃ jitvā, munīśreṣṭhaṃ kaśyapam ācāryarūpeṇa puraskṛtya vājapeyena ca śataṃ cāśvamedhaiś ca bhagavantaṃ samapūjayat, dakṣiṇārūpeṇa ca samudrasahitāṃ sarvām imāṃ pṛthivīṃ dadau.
毗舍波耶那说道：此处正是婆利古族中那位显赫的罗摩——苦行力无比深厚者——在屡次诛灭刹帝利诸王、征服大地之后，推尊最上仙人迦叶波为师而立于前；继而以“婆阇佩耶”大祭与一百次“马祭”（Aśvamedha）奉祀主宰，并将这整片大地连同环绕的诸海，作为祭礼之赐（dakṣiṇā）尽数布施之地。

Educational Q&A
The passage juxtaposes martial power with ritual restraint: even one who has gained sovereignty through force is shown submitting to dharmic order by honoring a preceptor, worshipping the Divine through sanctioned rites, and relinquishing possession through dakṣiṇā—implying that authority is ultimately accountable to spiritual and ethical norms.
Vaiśampāyana points out a sacred locale associated with Paraśurāma: after repeatedly annihilating kṣatriya rulers and conquering the earth, he appoints the sage Kaśyapa as his ācārya, performs a Vājapeya and a hundred Aśvamedhas, and finally donates the entire earth with its seas as the sacrificial gift.
