Srimad-Bhagavatam

SB Canto 9

The principles of the three Vedas, including the process of performing yajña to fulfill fruitive activities, appeared within the heart of King Purūravā.
SB 9.14.43, Translation: King Purūravā then left Agnisthālī in the forest and returned home, where he meditated all night upon Urvaśī. In the course of his meditation, the Tretā millennium began, and therefore the principles of the three Vedas, including the process of performing yajña to fulfill fruitive activities, appeared within his heart.

Sri Caitanya-caritamrta

CC Madhya-lila

Those who seek sense enjoyment by adhering to the principles of the three Vedas achieve only repeated birth and death.
CC Madhya 8.257, Purport: In the Bhagavad-gītā (9.20–21) Lord Kṛṣṇa states:
trai-vidyā māṁ soma-pāḥ pūta-pāpā
yajñair iṣṭvā svar-gatiṁ prārthayante
te puṇyam āsādya surendra-lokam
aśnanti divyān divi deva-bhogān
te taṁ bhuktvā svarga-lokaṁ viśālaṁ
kṣīṇe puṇye martya-lokaṁ viśanti
evaṁ trayī-dharmam anuprapannā
gatāgataṁ kāma-kāmā labhante
“Those who study the Vedas and drink soma juice, seeking the heavenly planets, worship Me indirectly. Purified of sinful reactions, they take birth on the pious, heavenly planet of Indra, where they enjoy godly delights. When they have thus enjoyed vast heavenly sense pleasure and the results of their pious activities are exhausted, they return to this mortal planet again. Thus those who seek sense enjoyment by adhering to the principles of the three Vedas achieve only repeated birth and death..”
