Keith.Pdf and TS-Find.Pdf Is to Ease Locating Certain Passages of Yajurveda Note Arthur Berriedale Keith (1879-1944) was Regius Professor of Sanskrit and Lecturer in Constitutional History in the University of Edinburgh. The younger son of an Edinburgh lawyer, and brother of the administrator in Burma Sir William John Keith, Arthur Berriedale Keith was educated at the Royal High School and the University of Edinburgh before going on to study at Balliol College, Oxford. He was called to the English bar and served in the Colonial Office for fourteen years before being appointed to the Regius Chair of Sanskrit in 1914. He made great contributions to Vedic and classical Sanskrit scholarship, and was called in to advise the Government during the abdication crisis in 1936. After his death his sister gifted to the University Library his books and papers on Sanskrit and the history and law of India and the British Empire. His translation "The Veda of the Black Yajus School" was published in 1914 in the USA: HARVARD ORIENTAL SERIES, Volume 18 and 19: The Veda of the Black Yajus School, entitled Taittiriya Sanhita, translated from the original Sanskrit prose and verse, with a running commentary. By ARTHUR BERRIDALE KEITH, D.C.L., D.Litt. (Oxford), of the inner Temple, Barrister-at-law, and of His Majesty's Colonial Office, sometime Acting Professor of Sanskrit at the University of Oxford, Author of 'Responsible Government in the Dominions.' 1914. Pages, 464 + 374 = 838. Royal 8º. (Reprint by Motilal Banarsidass, Delhi, 1967) The translation by A.B.Keith is out of copyright. It was scanned for www.sacred-texts.com in 2000 by J.B.Hare. There are other websites, where the scanned text is downloadable,e.g. http://www.sacred-texts.com/hin/yv/ http://hinduwebsite.com/sacredscripts/yajur_veda_intro.htm http://www.politicalgateway.com/documents/religions/yajurvedacontents.html http://www.integrativespirituality.org/postnuke/html/static-docs_Books-Hinduism-Yajur_Veda-index.htm The purpose of the files Keith.pdf and TS-find.pdf is to ease locating certain passages of Yajurveda: 1. This file Keith.pdf containing the translation of the Sanskrit text is a consolidated and reworked version of the text scanned by J. B. Hare so that any paragraph may be located directly as follows: [[1-1-1]] [[Book-Chapter-Paragraph]] 2. The file TS-find.pdf containing the transliterated Sanskrit text itself is organized as follows: [[1-1-1-1]] [[Book-Chapter-Paragraph-Verse]] Example: If you want to locate Book 2, Chapter 6, Paragraph 2 (on topic "The portions of butter"), in both Keith.pdf and TS-find.pdf, you many enter the same search string in both files: [[2-6-2 Please note the opening double square brackets In the file Keith.pdf you could omit [[ and search for 2-6-2, but in the file TS-find.pdf, this does not work, because 2-6-2 would locate both [[2-6-2-1]] and also [[3-2-6-2]], [[4-2-6-2]] etc. Therefore, unequivocal search strings should be initialed with opening [[, while closing ]] is never required. Note: The beginning of Book 1 etc. and its Contents is searchable by search string [[Kanda 1 etc. Ulrich Stiehl, 26-January-2005 Keith: Taittiriya-Samhita, Translation - Page 1 of 341 THE VEDA OF THE BLACK YAJUS SCHOOL entitled TAITTIRIYA SANHITA TRANSLATED FROM THE ORIGINAL SANSKRIT PROSE AND VERSE BY ARTHUR BERRIEDALE KEITH, D.C.L., D.

Om. Peace! Peace! Peace! Katha Upanishad Part One Chapter I 1 Vajasravasa, desiring rewards, performed the Visvajit sacrifice, in which he gave away all his property. He had a son named Nachiketa. 2—3 When the gifts were being distributed, faith entered into the heart of Nachiketa, who was still a boy. He said to himself: Joyless, surely, are the worlds to which he goes who gives away cows no longer able to drink, to eat, to give milk, or to calve. 4 He said to his father: Father! To whom will you give me? He said this a second and a third time. Then his father replied: Unto death I will give you. 5 Among many I am the first; or among many I am the middlemost. But certainly I am never the last. What purpose of the King of Death will my father serve today by thus giving me away to him? 6 Nachiketa said: Look back and see how it was with those who came before us and observe how it is with those who are now with us.

AtharvA taught what he had learned from his father to AngirA, who in turn taught it to SatyavAhA belonging to the clan of BharadvAjA. SatyavAhA passed that supreme knowledge in succession to Sage Angiras . sadagopan.org sadagopan.org sadagopan.org SaunakA, the celebrated grahasthA approached Sage Angiras and asked humbly: “O Illustrious sage! kasminnu BhagavO vig~nyAthE sarvamidham vig~nAtham bhavathee ?

  • The Brahman Priest in the History of Vedic Texts
    THE BRAHMAN PRIEST IN THE HISTORY OF VEDIC TEXTS Masato Fujii Kyoto The Brahman priest (brahnuÍn- m.)r is one of the four chief priests in Vedic rituals. Like the other three priests, the Hotf, the Adhvaryu, and the Udgãt¡, whose offices are inseparably connected with the three Vedas, the $.gveda, the Yajurveda, and the Sãmaveda respectively, the Brahman priest is often associated with the Atharva- veda. The main functions of the Brahman priest in Srauta rituals are to give the prasava, i.e., permission for the other priests to perform ritual acts, and to perform the prãyaicitti (or prãyaicitta), i.e., expiations for ritual faults. The assignment of these two functions to the Brahman priest, however, is not the same among Vedic ritual texts. The passages concerning these two functions of the Brahman priest in the texts from the Yajurveda-samhitas to the Srautasutras reveal a graclual process through which the office of Brahman priest was established in the history of Vedic texts and schools.2 The Brahman priest has not yet been studied exhaustively. and has been treated mostly as a side issue in connection with the other priests or the AV.
