kartuḥ śāstur anujñātus

yūyam — all you respectable persons who are present here; tat — that; anumodadhvam — kindly approve of my proposal; pitṛ — persons coming from Pitṛloka; deva — persons coming from the heavenly planets; ṛṣayaḥ — great sages and saintly persons; amalāḥ — those who are cleansed of all sinful activities; kartuḥ — the performer; śāstuḥ — the order-giver; anujñātuḥ — of the supporter; tulyam — equal; yat — which; pretya — after death; tat — that; phalam — result.
I request all the purehearted demigods, forefathers and saintly persons to support my proposal, for after death the result of an action is equally shared by its doer, its director and its supporter.
The government of Pṛthu Mahārāja was perfect because it was administered exactly according to the orders of the Vedic injunctions. Pṛthu Mahārāja has already explained that the chief duty of the government is to see that everyone executes his respective duty and is elevated to the platform of Kṛṣṇa consciousness. The government should be so conducted that automatically one is elevated to Kṛṣṇa consciousness. King Pṛthu therefore wanted his citizens to cooperate fully with him, for if they assented, they would enjoy the same profit as he after death. If Pṛthu Mahārāja, as a perfect king, were elevated to the heavenly planets, the citizens who cooperated by approving of his methods would also be elevated with him. Since the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement going on at the present moment is genuine, perfect and authorized and is following in the footsteps of Pṛthu Mahārāja, anyone who cooperates with this movement or accepts its principles will get the same result as the workers who are actively propagating Kṛṣṇa consciousness.
