Hinduism - What Is The Black Yajur Veda?





The Yajur Veda in its worst form is known as the Black Yajur Veda Or The Book Of Black Arts and Witchcraft.



One of the two main versions of the Yajur Veda, one of the earliest Hindu sacred scriptures, together with the White Yajur Veda. 



  • The placement of explanatory notes on the Vedic mantras (holy sounds) and their meaning is the main distinction between these two types. 
  • These comments are included in the text of the Black Yajur Veda in all four recensions. 
  • The one recension of the White Yajur Veda, on the other hand, collects these comments in an appendix known as a Brahmana, which gives the second main stratum of Vedic writings its name.
