'Prajapati is the year; his Self is that Mahavrata. The Vajasaneyins have a Brahmana referring to the Pravargya, 'The gods sat down for a sattra-celebration. With reference to all this a doubt arises whether these mantras and the sacrificial works referred to in the Brahmana texts form parts of the meditations enjoined in the Upanishads or not.
There are certain acts, however, which, though not laid down, should be done agreeably to reasonable inferences. What is said, therefore, in the second line of 20 is that the procedure was fully followed, both as laid down and as consistent with inferences. Pravargya is a special preliminary rite performed in a sacrifice.
The priests, well conversant with the Vedas, did every rite duly, moving about in all directions. They were all well-trained, and possessed of omniscience. In nothing was there a swerving from the ordinances and nothing was done improperly. Those best of regenerate ones, having first performed the rite called Pravargya, otherwise called Dharma, then duly went through the rite of Abhishava, O king.
