The Taittiriya Shakha is a notable ''shakha'' ("rescension") of the Krishna Yajurveda. The Vishnu Purana attributes it to a pupil of Yaska named Tittiri. It is most prevalent in south India. The ''shakha'' consists of: *The Taittiriya Samhita— (TS) which consists of 8 books or ''kaandas'', subdivided in chapters or ''prapathakas'', further subdivided into individual hymns. Some individual hymns in this Samhita have gained particular importance in Hinduism; e.g. TS 4.5 and TS 4.7 constitute the Shri Rudram Chamakam, while 1.8.6.i is the Shaivaite Tryambakam mantra. *The Taittiriya Brahmana (having three kaandas). Part of kathaka ''shakha'' brahmana is also included in this shakha. *the Taittiriya Aranyaka (having seven prashnas) * *The Taittiriya Upanishad (having three ''prashnas'' or ''vallis'' - Sheeksha valli, Ananda valli and Bhrigu valli) * *The Mahanarayana Upanishad * *The Nakṣatra Sūktam comes from kāṇḍa 3, prapāṭhakaḥ 5, Anuvākaḥ 1 of the Taittirīya Saṃhitāḥ *The Apastamba Shrautasutra/The Bodhayana Shrautasutra/The Vaikhanasa Shrautasutra/The Hiranyakeshi Shrautasutra The Taittiriya Upanishad and Mahanarayana Upanishad are considered to be the seventh, eighth, ninth and tenth prashnas of the Taittiriya Aaranyaka. The words ''prapaathaka'' and ''kaanda'' (meaning sections) are interchangeably used in the Vedic literature. ''Prashna'' and ''valli'' refer to sections of the Aaranyaka. ==Editions== *Albrecht Weber, ''Die ,'' Leipzig, Indische Studien 11-12, Brockhaus (1871, 1872) (etext ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Taittiriya Shakha」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
