Yajus-samhita

Yajurveda comprises of hymns taken from Rig-Veda and prose passages -


explanatory - from the ritualistic aspect. Therefore this samhita is partly
in prose and partly in poetry. Patanjali speaks of 101 rescensions of this
Veda. Most of them have now disappeared.

This Veda has two branches sukla and Krishna.
