Li'es, 22 on a page. Character, Telugi. Appearance, od. In good con Wition. Contains the cight Astakas complete. The Sawhiti portion of the Rgveda is divided in two ways: it is divided into eight parts, cach of which is called Astaka. Each Astaka is sub-divided into eight Adhyayas, whence the name Astaka, which agam are sub-divided into Vargas; and these, again into Rcas. The number of Rcas in a Varga and the number of Vargas in an Adhyaya are not the same and are various. The Samhita is again divided into ten Mandalas ; each Mandala is composed of a number of Anuvakas which are sub-divided into Suktas composed of Rcas. The codex under notice and all the manuscripts of this Library containing the work, adopt the Astaka division. The text in this manuscript is not accented. With regard to the accentuation sce the remarks on page 3. A list of the authors of the Rgveda Sarhiti, which will be of much use to the student of history and mythology, is given on pages 11---24. The Samhita has been published completely by Th. Aufrecht in Roman letters, 1861-3; the second edition was published in 1877.. For Private and Personal Use Only

Beginning: 2 F. M. Muller edited the Samhita and the Pada texts in parallel volumes in 1873, and both the texts with Sayana's commentary and a copious verbal index in six volumes (1849-74). Complete translations of the Samhita have been published by Alfred Ludwig (Prag. 1876) and Hermann Grassman (Leipzig, 1876-77). The latter has published a valuable index under the designation of Worterbuch zum Rigveda. An English translation of the whole Samhita has been printed by Griffith recently.

Shri Mahavir Jain Aradhana Kendra TUE SANSKRIT MANUSCRIPTS. www.kobatirth.org The following is a scheme of Vedic accents which deserves the attention of foreign readers for understanding the general principles of the Vedic svaras in the light of music :-- Udatta, and Pracaya, i.c., Anudatta following Svarita. .. Anudatta preceding the Udatta and }.. marked as Svarita. ani ma Acharya Shri Kailassagarsuri Gyanmandir - not marked. Svarita do. | There are three Svaras or accents in the Vedas; the Udatta, acute,' the Anudatta, 'grave,' and the Svarita, toned.' When more than one Anudatta precede an Udatta, all but the last are often sounded lower. The 1st Anudatta following an Udatta becomes Svarita; and all the rest are sounded like the Udatta and called Pracayas. If we compare the above accents with the tones of a musical gamut, we can know the exact sounds of those accents. Let the Udatta be represented by any key on the piano and be marked as C, and sa according to the Hindu method; then the two sounds of the Anudatta will be marked as B and ni, and G and qpa, respectively. The Svarita will be sounded as C sharp and fri.2 The Pracaya svara, as it is pronounced by the Brahmans of the Taittiriya Sakha and the Rgveda, is identical with the Udatta, and therefore is equal to C and H sa. A long Svarita in the Rgveda is split into two long sounds-the first of which is sounded as Udatta and the second, as Svarita. nissa sA rI sA ni sA ri sA ni sa ri nau sa -- ke pu rohi'taM ya'jJasya' de' va It is called suddha rsabha by the Hindus.

This system of accentuation is not scientific, nor does it prevail in many parts of India such as the northern countrics and Malabar. It differs considerably from the mode of accentuation adopted in the Sama Veda in reriting the original hymns or rks taken from the Rigveda. From the musical notation given above, it is seen that the sound of the Svarita is higher by one note than the Udatta, and this is wrong as the Udatta must be raised above the other svaras. The Anudatta being lower than the Udatta, the Svarita must be higher than the Anudatta and lower than the Udatta, and so must intervene between them. In any case we have simply to mark only the Udatta, and the positions of the remaining svaras can be settled.

TIE SANSKRIT MANUSCRIPTS. There is a Bhurja manuscript of the Rgveda which is more than five hundred years old and was discovered by Dr. Buhler. In the manuscript the Udatta alone is marked, and that by a perpendicular stroke ; and the same is the case with one of the two schools of the Maitrayani samhita. (Weber's Hist. of Ind. Lit., p. 314). There are two manuscripts in the Library in which this notation is adopted. This notation is more scientific than the cxisting one. Generally the same accentuation is adopted both in the Rgvida and the Yajur Veda. The whole of the ten Mandalas of the Rgveda, and the Samhita and the major portions of the Brahmasas of the Yajur Vedas are accented; and many of the remaining Brahmanas and generally the Upanisads are not accented.

THE SANSKRIT MANUSCRIPTS. This is an apocryphal hymu mentioned by Professor Max Muller in the Preface to his Rgveda, Vol. II. It is added at the end of a manuscript consulted hy him after the 12th Varga of the 8th Adhyaya of the 2nd Astaka. Then follows the last hymn of the 12th Varga, the 13th, 14th and 15th Vargas of the 8th Adhyaya of the 2nd Astaka. The 11th and 12th Vargas contain hymns to be rocited on hearing any unpleasant cries of birds as stated in the commentary. They are also recited in the marriage ceremony on the occasion of the bride going to the father-in-law's house and are called Sumangala Sakta. They are addressed to the bird Kapiinjara, a kind of partridge, which is supposed to represent the god Siva and Indra, and are to be recited with the other passages. The apocryphal passage beginning with a faz 197077: is addressed to the same bird kapiJjara. (3) contains a Khila or apocryphal hymn called Ratrisukta which is printed in the Preface to Vol. VI. Rgveda, by Profossor Max Miller. The passage occurs at the end of X, 127 in two of the manuscripts consulted by him, This Sukta is a hymn addressed to the Night deity and is called Ratrisukta and, according to the quotation made from the Aranyaka, should be recited at a sacrifice for removing the effects of cvil dreams. It is referred to also in Asva-Grihya Paris., 1. The text in the manuscript under notice is slightly different from what is printed by him. After the 4th Rk, occurs T a uri Agat which is the 12th in the text printed by him. The next hymn is gaa94 art, which occurs as the 9th in the printed text. Then follow the hymns Grig' tag and Trail to STFH14T: which are the 13th and 14th in the latter text with which the Sukta ends. But the text in the manuscript is then followed by the following hymns, 379 VII, 104-22; KTIVI TA IV, 3-14; if I miga I, 133-5; de CHIH, 36 aaa, Bartu zaht. After this occur the five hymns of the Sukta For Private and Personal Use Only

THE SANSKRIT MANUSCRIPTS. 11 The first passage of the extract is a kind of index giving the first few words, and the number, of the Reas in the Varga. Such an index is added to many of the Vargas in this codex. Another peculiar feature is that an index is added at the end of each Adhyaya which gives the initial two or three words of every Varga, beginning from the 1st Varga of the next Adhyaya, and going backwards up to the 1st Varga of the Adhyaya. For instance, at the end of the 8th Adhyaya, the index begins with the first four words of the 1st Varga of the next Adhyaya, viz., the Brahmana, which begins as 3rfa 291714941 Tacos: (Vide p. 10). Next comes the first few words of the last Varga in the 8th Adhyaya, i.e., of the 49th Varga, then of the 48th Varga and so on, till the 1st Varga. Then follows another index which gives the first words of the 1st, 11th, 21st, 31st, 41st, &c,, Vargas. The number of Vargas remaining over the decennial number, i.e., over 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, &c., is also added. For example in the 8th Adhyaya, the words tyaMcit, IkhayantIH, akSIbhyAM, AtvAhA, apazyantvA are the initial words of the 1st, 11th, 21st, 31st and 41st Vargas; and 99 or 9 at the end shows that there are nine Vargas over 40, making up a total of 49 Vargas. Similar mnemonical formalae occur in the Yajur Vedas also. The following list of the authors and authoresses of the Suktas of the Rgveda, which is of much interest to the students of history and mythology, is given in alphabetical order. The same list is printed also in Vol. VI of Professor Max Muller's Rgveda, aMhomuk vAmade OTT: ... 10 126 HAT: HATI ... 1034 3416: ... 1 165 to agastyaH viSazaGkA ar? ... 191 agastyasya svasA Dramai 1 ... 10 agnayaH dhiSNyAH 4: ... 9 60 109 For Private and Personal Use Only

The well-known commentary by Sayanacarya, the prime minister of Virabukka, the king of Vijayanagaram. The commentary of the whole samhita of the Rgvida has been edited by Professor Max Muller; and the first chapter alone by Dr. Roer in the Bibl. Indica. The first three Adhyayas only have been commented upon by Anandatirtha in such a way that cach Rk is made to refer to god Visnu, and that the name of every other dcity indicates that deity alono. Somo say that Anandatirtha wrote a commentary on the whole of the Samhita, but this opinion is opposed to the statement of Jayatirtha, who wrote a gloss on the Bhanya of Anandatirtha and says 'kAsAMcana RcAM bhASyaM kariSyannAcAryaH' " the teacher going to comment upon a few rcas." One hundred and forty leaves in the beginning being lost, the manuscript begins from the 4th Rk of the 34th Varga of the 1st Adhyaya in the 1st Astaka, and ends with the 4th Rk of the 38th Varga of the 2nd Adhyaya in the same Astaka.

A commentary ascribed to Vidyadhara, Vidyatirtha Mahesvara and Vidyaranyasvamin and printed by Hall, was reprinted by Max Muller in the Preface to the Rg Veda, Vol. IV. Verses 11 and 12 of the Srisukta refer to Ciklita and Kardama respectively, who, according to the commentary, are the sons of the Goddess of Fortune; and a verse which is added at the end of the Srisukta printed in the Preface to the Rg Veda, Vol. III, by Max Muller mentions Ananda, a third son of the Goddess. AnandaH kardamaH zrIdaH ciklIta iti vizrutAH / RNarogAdidAridrayapApakSudapamRtyavaH / rogazokamanastApA nazyantu mama sarvadA || The first line occurs in the MS. No. 22 noticed above, with a slight difference and a new line; and they run as follow: AnandaH kardamazcaiva ciklIta iti vizrutAH / RSayaste trayaH putrAH svayaM zrIreva devatA || From this stanza we learn directly that Ananda, Kardama and Ciklita were three sons of the Goddess Laksmi. They are also said to be the Rsis to the mantra of the Srisukta (p. 41). It is very curious that Hindu mythology which has been very prolific in every direction has not developed these facts into a long story and has allowed the three names of the sons of Laksmi to remain in oblivion. The book under notice is a commentary on the Srisukta and seems to have been written by Madhavacarya from the fact (1) that For Private and Personal Use Only

THE SANSKRIT MANUSCRIPTS. The commentary of Gomatha Ranganatha on the Srisukta. This manuscript contains also Sandhyavandanabhasyam (fol. 24a), The peculiarity of this commentary is that it interprets the word jAtavedas to mean the GodiVisnu instead of Agni, the God of Fire, and that it quotes authoritics from Vedas, Smrtis and Purasas in support of the interpretation; I have therefore given a long extract to show fully the nature of the work. In this matter of interpretation it is only a type of the Vaisnavite commentaries which always interpret the names of gods to mean Visnu whenever it is convenient to do so.

The Brahmana portion of the Rgveda in eight Pancikas, each consisting of 5 Adhyayas. This Brahmana is also called Bahvrcabrahmana and Aitareyabrahmana. The namo Aitaroya Brahmana seems to have been applied to the Brahmana of the Rgveda in reference to its having been borrowed from another Veda, or Sakha or branch of the same Veda, as the word Aitaraya indicates " belonging to another" (sic Veda). But it was supposed that the word was the name of a sage who composed the work; and a story was invented in support of the etymology and the belief; and it is contained in the following passage :-- pravRttasya tu brAhmaNasyaitareyakale saMpradAyavida etAmAkhyAyikAmAcakSate / kasya cit khalu maharbahvayaH patnayo vartante |taasaaN madhye kasyAzciditareti nAmadheyam / itarAyAH putro mahIdAsAkhyaH kumAraH / etaccAraNyakANDe samAnAyate "etaddhasma vaitadvidvAn mahIdAsa aitareyaH" tadIyasya piturbhAyantiraputreSeva snehAtizayaH na tu mhiidaase| tataH kasyAM cit yajJasabhAyAM mahIdAsamavajJAyAnyAn patrAn svotsaGge sthApayAmAsa / tadAnIM vinnavadanaM For Private and Personal Use Only

There was a sage who had many wives, and one of them was named Itara. She had a son whose name was Mahidasa. The father neglected him and loved the other sons more than Mahidasa; and at a sacrifice he allowed all the other sons to sit on his lap, but refused the honor to Mahidasa. Thereupon Itara prayed to the Goddess of Earth, who appeared at once and offered a divine throne to Mabidasa and seated him there. The Goddess thon made him a great scholar. Enlightened by the boon of the Godless of Earth, he composed a Brahmana and an Aranyaka, which are known by the names of the Aitareya Brahmana and the Aitareya Aranyaka. The Aitareya Brahmana belongs to the Sakalyasakha just as the Sankyayana or Kausitaki Brahmana docs to the BaskalaSakha. They treat however of the same subjects, but differ considerably in their views. The Aitaroya Brahmana is divided into eight Panchikas or pentads, each of which contains five Adhyayas; and the whole work is therefore composed of forty chapters. The last ten chapters are supposed to be later additions. The following are the subject matter of the forty Adhyayas. Adhyayas 1 to 13 treat of the duties of the Hots priest in the Agnistoma sacrifice. Adhyaya 14 explains the meaning of the term Agnistoma, and other matters. Adhyayas 15 to 17 describe the Ukthya, sadasa, Atiratra and other sacrifices. For Private and Personal Use Only

Page #67
THE SANSKRIT MANUSCRIPTS. 61 Adhyaya 18 contains the rules to be observed by the Hotr priests. Acharya Shri Kailassagarsuri Gyanmandir Adhyayas 19 to 24 treat of the duties of the Hotr priests at the twelve minor sacrifices. Adhyaya 25 treat of the expiatory ceremonies to be performed by the sacrificer Yajamana, the time of performing the Agnistoma sacrifice, and the duties of Brahman. Adhyayas 26 to 30 treat of the duties of the Gravastut, Subrahmanya, and the six minor priests at the Soma sacrifice. Adhyayas 31 to 40 treat of the sacrifices to be performed by a Ksatriya, and the mutual relation of the Brahmans and the Ksatriyas. The Aitareya Brahmana refers to the Kausitaka and Paingya in a passage occurring in the latter part of it, which is however considered to be an interpolation; and so the work is supposed to be more ancient than the latter. It was edited by Dr. Haug with an English translation in 1863 and also in the Bibliotheca by Rajendra Lala Mitra and Satyavrata Svamin. Th. Aufrecht edited the text in the Roman character with extracts from the commentary of Sayana in 1879. The last folio gives an index, written in ink, by the same person who wrote the endorsement, showing the folio, page of the folio and line of the page of the beginning of each Adhyaya of the Pancika. Then comes the following "Here ends the Bahvrca Brahmana, a portion of the Rig-vedah. Complete in eight Panchakas, Grantham character. Calicut, 1825. C. W.

Begins on fol. 2590. This is the same manuscript as No. 33. Acharya Shri Kailassagarsuri Gyanmandir The Aranyaka portion of the Rgveda. It is a supplement to the Aitareya Brahmana and consists of five parts or Aranyakas; the first, the fourth and the fifth treating of the Mahavrata, and the second and the third, of theological metaphysics. The last four chapters of the second part is designated Aitareyopanisad and is included in the Upanisads. According to a passage quoted in No. 32, it was composed by the sago Aitareya who composed the Brahmana also. The work is ascribed to Asvalayana according to the colophon ityAzvalAyanoktamAraNyakaM samAptam || with which the manuscripts mentioned in Eggeling's Cat. end. Colebrooke has seen the same reference in a manuscript of the book. He gives the substance of a passage in which it is said that an Aranyaka was composed by Asvalayana and was raised to the dignity of a Brahmana. (Colebrooke's Mis. Es., Vol. I, page 307.) The word means what is to be studied in the forest and is applied to a branch of the Vedic literature, which was intended to be studied so, as seen from the following passage araNyAdhyayanAdetadAraNyakamiryate - Preface to Sayana's commentary of the Taittiriyaranyaka. 69 The work has been published by Rajendra Lal Mitra in the Bibliotheca Indica at Calcutta (1875) with Sayana's commentary completely. Aranyakas 1-3 have been translated by Max Muller in Vol. I of the Sacred Books of the East. hariH om // bhUmimupasTazeta / zaM na indrAni For Private and Personal Use Only / bhadraM karNebhiH / stuSe janaM suvrataM

The text or rk has marks indicating the mode of reciting the hymns; and when the verses are chanted, they are called Samani. The book of Samans belonging to the Purvark is called Prakrti; those belonging to the Uttarark constitute Uha and Rahasya. The peculiarity of the Uttarark is that, generally, three verses are grouped together and form one sk; and the first of them occurs in the Purvark; and this group of verses is chanted in various ways 10 For Private and Personal Use Only

74 A DESCRIPTIVE CATALOGUE OF with the Saman so occurring in the Praksti. Hence the Samans of the Purvark are called Prakrti. The Uha contains the Samans of those Reas which occur in Agndya. Aindra and Pavamana of the Purvark, while the Reas of the Rahasya are taken from the Arupa and the Sukriya. At the end of the Purvark, comes the Mahanami, which is considered by some as a part of the Purvareas and by others as a separate work. The Samans relating to it aro called Sakvari, so named after the kind of Suman in which it is usually sung. The Uttarark consists of 21 Adhyayas on the whole. The Simans of Uha and Rahasya are cach divided into the following soctions according to their subject matter :1. 977157 5. H 2. Harat: 6. 91787777 3. 15: 7. 85 4. 1 : The Ganas are collections of hynms arranged in a particular way and set to music. The Geyaganas and the Aranyaganas claim a great antiquity (Burnell's Sama Brahm., XXXI, and Ars Brahm., p. XV) According to Weber, the Gramagoyaginas are erroneously called Voyaganas. In the Grantha edition printed in Southern India by a learned Chandoga scholar, Krsnasvami Srautin, the Purvarsika set to music is called Veyagana, as is indicated by the colophou grk QYTTA AHIFAL! Th. Benfey has published the two Arcikas of the Sama Samhita (1848), and Satyavrata Samasramin, the two Arcikas and the Ganas with the commentary of Sayana in the Bibl. Ind., in five volumes (1874-78), The Samhita has been translated into English by Rev. J. Steevenson, London, 1842. The recitation of the Samaveda is of two kinds. One is simple and applies to the mere Suktas or hymns which are taken from the Rgveda generally, and adopts threc Svaris, the Udatta, the For Private and Personal Use Only

Page #81
THE SANSKRIT MANUSCRIPTS. 75 Anudatta, and the Svarita, which occur in the Rgveda and the Yajurveda. The pronunciation of these Svaras among the Brahmans of the Samaveda is quite different from that prevailing among tho Brahmans of the other Vodas and appears to me more original and scientific. The Udatta is high and emphasised, and the Anudatta is low, while the Svarita occupies a somewhat middling position. Apart from the hymns which are metrical, there are lists of words which are unconected with each other and are pronounced with the above Svarus. In these separate words and also in the metrical hymns, differences are met with in regard to the position of the Svaras. For instance, we have the hymn, agniM dRtaM vRNImahe accented in the Rgveda in the following manner : agniM dUtaM vRNImahe hotAraM vizvavedasam / asya yajJasya sukratum // In the simple text of the Samaveda it is accented in the followe ing manucr : agniM dUtaM vRNImahe hotAraM vizvavedasam / 52 3.13 3 i 2 asya yajJasya sukratum / / Now, if we compare the marks of the accents, we see that the figures 1, 2 and 3 stand for the Udatta, Svarita and the Anudatta, respectively. But in tho word 37104_the second syllable is accented in the Rgveda, while there is no accent (the Udatta) in the word in the Samaveda. Again, the word 37 FT has the accent on the second syllable in the Rgveda, but none in the Samaveda. The same kind of difference is seen between the Pada texts of the Rgveda and the Samavcda.

The musical chanting of the Samavada is far more elaborate and complicate than the artificial mode of the recitation of the Rgveda and the Yajurveda. There are seven notes, which are called Krusta, Prathama, Dvitiya, Tritiya, Caturtha, Paincama and Sastha; the last two are also called Mandra and Anisvarya respectively. They correspond to the notes of the gamut of Hindu music in the following way :-- Samaveda. Hindu music. Prathama . .. Madhyama .. .. ma. Dvitiya Gandhara Titiya Rsabha ri. Caturtha Sadja sa.

THE SANSKRIT MANUSCRIPTS. 77 The notes of the Samavada and the corresponding notes of the Hindu music are identical with the notes of the English music as shown below : 1 -- 2 -- 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 Samaveda. H - JT - F - H - St-fa9 Hindu music. fcd a b & English music. From the way in which the hymns of the Sama are sung, it appears clearly that e is flat. As far as I can ascertain, 6 is also flat. The methods of singing the Samaveda are different in different countries, and none of them agree with the figures which are uniformly inserted over the vowels to indicate the notes with which they are to be sung. There is a uniformity in the use of these symbols of notes in all the countries; and this method of notation has been handed down to us from a remote period. To give a musical idea of the chanting of the Samaveda, as it ought to be, I give here tue first hymn 343 34TTIE in the Vedio and musical notations. o nA i / A yA hI i vo i to yA A i / to yA A i / sA sA sa / gA gA ga ri mA ma mA mA gA g| mA mA gA ga ccceeed f f f f e e ffee gR NA no ha / vya dA to yA A i / to yA A i / nAi mA ma gA g| ga mA mA mA gA ga / mA mA gA ga / mA ma PS fe e e f f fe effe e f f For Private and Personal Use Only
