Editor; Pub. by Parankusacharya Vaidika Adhyayan Samstha (Regd.), 722, 5th D Cross, H.R.B.R. Block II, Kalyan Nagar, Bangalore-560043. Price not specified. THIS WORK is a manual on Krishna Yajurveda (Taittiriya branch). It contains explanatory notes and clarification of certain words, which, unless explained clearly, may leave room for doubt about their exact form. The purpose of the work is to remove such doubts. For instance the words `Swah' and `Smah' do not have the aspirate at the end when chanted in the Samhita style (where the words are given in the coalesced forms). But when chanted in the Pada-style (where each word is separately given, without coalescence), these words do have the final aspirate. Unless this feature is explained, one will go away with a wrong notion about the exact form of these words. The present text explains 2156 words under seven heads: Shamaana, Vilanghya, Napara, Tapara, Avani, Avarmi and Aningya. Different authors in different styles have composed the commentaries on these. The editor P. Ramanuja has done yeomen service for the cause of Vedic tradition by bringing out this volume in connection with the birth centenary of his father Ghanapati Parankusacharya, a great scholar. This is a boon to Vedic scholars who are sustaining, even in the present age, the grand old tradition of chanting Vedas with Svaras. The editor deserves praise for this effort ____________________________________________________________________________________ Yahoo!
