नारद–असित (देवल) संवादः — भूतप्रभवाप्यय, इन्द्रिय-गुण-विवेक, क्षेत्रज्ञ-तत्त्व
ब्राह्मणप्रभवो यज्ञो ब्राह्म॒णार्पण एव च । अनुयज्ञं जगत् सर्व यज्ञश्चानुजगत् सदा
brāhmaṇaprabhavo yajño brāhmaṇārpaṇa eva ca | anuyajñaṃ jagat sarvaṃ yajñaścānujagat sadā ||
迦毗罗开示:祭祀(yajña)出自梵书/吠陀之源;依其正当轨则,又当回献于婆罗门,作为应受供养者。他又说二者相依:整个世界随祭祀而行;而祭祀亦恒常随世界而行、扶持世界——彼此相为后盾,成为长存的秩序。
कपिल उवाच
Yajña is presented as a foundational Vedic institution arising from the Brahminical source and properly directed toward Brahmins; moreover, yajña and the world are mutually sustaining—society and cosmos depend on sacrificial order, and sacrificial order persists in relation to the world.
In Kapila’s discourse in the Śānti Parva, he is explaining the place of yajña within dharma: its origin, its rightful recipients, and its ongoing role as a sustaining principle that stands in reciprocal relation with the world.
