Sanskrit 

Vedic tradition 

M. NARASIMHACHARY 



SAPTALAKSHANA PARISHKARAH ? Sanskrit Text with
Commentary and Svara: P. Ramanuja ? 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
