Vedas

The author, Devi Chand, has a deep understanding of Vedic literature and studied diverse interpretations of the Vedas.  This translation of the Yajurveda contains hymns taken from the older Rigveda and prose passages which are new. It can be considered to be a priestly manual because it lays down rules for the performance of various sacrifices and rituals. The translation is based upon Swami Dayananda's original interpretation.
