The New Vedic Selection Part 1 The New Vedic Selection, consisting of representa tive pieces from the Samhitas, Brāhmaņas, Aranyakas, Upanisads and some of the important Vedāngas, was prepared by me in 1965, in collaboration with my revered teacher Pt. N. K. S. Telanga on the kind advice of Dr. S. Bhattacharya, Professor and Head of the Deptt. of Sanskrit and Pali, B. H. U. The book was subsequently, I am glad to state, prescribed for B. A. and M. A. coursos by the Universities.
In June, 1971, The New Vedic Selection became out of print. Unfortunately, the plan to bring out a second edition was to be dropped, because of the sad preinature demise of Pt. N. K. S. Talanga in August, 1971. However, due to the pressing demand for the book from students and teachers I took up the plan to bring out a revised edition.
Since The New Vedic Selection contained Vedic texts prescribed for B. A, as well as for M. A. classes, it was felt that for the convenience of students the book be published in two parts, separating the relevant cour- ses. Consequently, the first part, consisting of the hymns prescribed for the B. A. courses of the Banaras Hindu University as also of various other Universities, was brought out in September, 1972. Now I feel pleasure in presenting the Second Part before the M. A. Students, for which they were waiting from a long time. Professor and Head of the Department of Sanskrit, University of Allahabad, the following hymns covering the courses of B. A. of the Allahabad University were alsò added:-
1. Agni Sūkta (BV.L.1) | 2. Hiranyagarbha Sūkta (BV. X. 121) | 3. Vak Sūkta (BV. X. 125) | 4. Puruşa Sūkta (Sukla YV. XXXI. 1-16) | 5. Śivasankalpa Sūkta (Sukla YV. XXXIV. 1-6) | 6. Prthiyi Sūkta (AV. XII. 1)
The Part I now covers the B. A. courses of various Indian. Universities. To make the Selection more useful to B. A. students I have given the prose-order (anvaya) of each mantra/ In the present edition words in the Notes also are presented with their proper accent-marks. Realizing the difficulty of the students of Hindi-speaking area, I have given the four appendices on Vedic Grammar, Vedic Accent, Vedic Metre and Vedic Deities in Hindi in this part. These appendices will be helpful for the beginners.
