In this book both the Vaidiki and Tantriki Sandhyas are given. All twice-born persons are entitled to the first; while the Tantriki is meant for all mankind, without distinction of caste, race or creed. The Yajur Vedi Sandhya is based upon the text published by Pandit Devi Datt Joshi. It is an excellent hand-book. A chapter on the Sandhya of the Rig-Vedins as well as one on the Tantriki Sandhya is added. In the present edition, the Mid day Duties, namely, the worship of Visņu, Siva, etc., is also given, as well as the Five Great Sacrifices. The book is more than double the size of the last edition.
I have consulted, in giving commentary on the Vedic mantras, the edition of the Anandasrama series also.
The translation of the Vedic mantras is, in many cases, my own and, in some instances, taken from Griffith, Max Müller, Whitney, and Peterson.
My sons-in-law, Babu Nandalal Sinha, M.A., B.L., and Professor Lalit Mohan Kar, Kavyatirtha, M.A., B.L., have greatly assisted me in revising this edition for the press.
