I am delighted to announce the reprint of Vajasaneya Kaņva Satapatha Brahmaņa in five volumes.
There are three more editions of the Satapatha Brahmaņa pertaining to the Kaņva Sakha. However, these editions have minor gaps. The first version of the book, edited by W.D. Caland and Dr. Raghuvira, published in Lahore in 1926 (reprinted 1985), includes only seven Kandas. The second edition, edited by Prof. Gunakar Pimplapure is published by Maharshi Sandipani Rashtriya Veda Vidya Pratisthan in Ujjain in 2002, and the third edition edited by, Dr.C. R. Swaminathan and published by Indira Gandhi National Centre for Arts in New Delhi in 1994-2015 is a critical edition that incorporates text translations.
Despite the positive aspects of these publications, students studying in Pathaśalas have always felt a need for a suitable text.
The current version published by VSM stands out for Gurukula students and teachers alike. Vedamurti Parashuram Ghanapathi was a follower of the Käņva Śakha and founder of his own Yajñavalkya Gurukula. The manuscript of the Kanvaśatapatha text is based on the words of Vedamurti Parashuram Ghanapaṭhī, a devout disciple of the Känņva Śakha, who devoted his life for teaching Kanvasatapatha Brahmaņa. This has a unique importance for the Kanva tradition. The oral legacy of Kaņva Satapatha is rare. The publication of VSM, however in 5 volumes, is very notable, as it is extremely easy to carry and printed in Pothī style. It includes the tradition of Vedamurti Parashuram Ghanapathi from his own manuscript. This special Parayanaprata fulfils the need of Gurukula.
