Description

This is a 1914 translation by Arthur Berriedale Keith of the Yajur Veda; ancient Hindu scriptures central to Vedic rituals and philosophy. It is primarily a collection of mantras (sacred chants) and prose formulas used in rituals and sacrifices. The Taittiriya Samhita is one of the two main versions, and is associated with the Krishna (Black) Yajur Veda. Some attribute it to Tittiri, a pupil of Yaska. The text is associated with the Taittiriya school of the Yajurveda, and attributed to the pupils of sage Tittiri (literally, partridge birds). It contains detailed instructions and explanations for performing various Vedic rituals, making it an essential text for priests and practitioners of Vedic ceremonies.
