Inhaltsangabe

The four Vedic Samhitas and the accompanying works comprise the great majority of Vedic literature. This book introduces the reader to the other texts that round out the Vedic canon, such as the Brahmanas, Aranyakas, and Upanishads. Aside from these, there are three types of Kalpa Sutra texts. There are also comments, anukramanis or indices, and related writings, known as the Vedangas. Although all early writings and comments were written in Sanskrit, subsequent interpretations used a variety of languages.
