SB 10.24.27
huyantam agnayah samyag
brahmanair brahma-vadibhih
annam bahu-gunam tebhyo
deyam vo dhenu-daksinah
Translation:
The brahmanas who are learned in the Vedic mantras must properly invoke the sacrificial fires. Then you should feed the priests with nicely prepared food and reward them with cows and other gifts.
Purport:
According to Srila Sridhara Svami, Lord Sri Krsna instructed His father and other residents of Vrndavana in the technical details of this Vedic sacrifice to assure the quality of the sacrifice and also to inspire Nanda and the others with faith in the concept of such a sacrifice. Thus the Lord mentioned that there must be orthodox brahmanas, regular sacrificial fires and proper distribution of charity. And things were to be done in the order given by the Lord.
