Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.206.104.232 ( talk) 17:19, 27 September 2007 (UTC) changed name to Taittireeya since it is more close to real pronounciation. It would be better to retain the more "academic" spelling with "i" here. The last "i" is long, and a long "i" is sometimes spelled "ee" in informal usage. Taithreeya is simply not correct and does not accurately reflect the spelling in Sanskrit. Please change the name of the page back to the correct Taittiriya. please change the name back to original one. see Yajnavalkya for why word tittiri got associated with yajurveda. While Taittiriya means belonging to 'tittiri' (which means partridge in english). please tell me what does Taithreeya mean? it has no meaning. Lokesh 2000 13:32, 6 November 2006 (UTC) Name change to Taithreeya Ī user has changed the name to Taithreeya from Taittiriya which was a correct one. I tried my best in this article but language seems too esoteric.Ĭould anybody help in simplification and good formatting? Of course, I would always recommend buying the book so you get the latest edition.Hi, Upanishads are full of esoteric and terse meaning, communicating original expressions and ideas of upanishads in english is difficult. The full text of the Taittiriya Upanishad in English is available here and publically accesible (free to read online).

Source: Contents of this online book ( + / - ) This edition contains the orignal sanskrit, roman (IAST) transliteration and the english translation of the Taittiriya Upanishad With the Commentaries of Śaṅkarāchārya (Shankara), Sureśvarāchārya (Sureshvara) and Sāyaṇa (also known as Vidyāraṇya)

It is divided into three sections, 1) the Siksha Valli, 2) the Brahmananda Valli and 3) the Bhrigu Valli.ġ) The Siksha Valli deals with the discipline of Shiksha (which is the first of the six Vedangas or "limbs" or auxiliaries of the Vedas), that is, the study of phonetics and pronunciation.Ģ) The Brahmananda Valli teaches about Brahman and tries to define it as "Truth, Omniscient, and Infinite".ģ) The Bhrigu Valli describes how son of Varuna (The Water God) Bhrigu obtained realization of Brahman through repeated Tapas under his fathers guidance. It says that the highest goal is to know the Brahman, for that is truth. Summary: The Taittiriya Upanishad is one of the older, "primary" Upanishads, part of the Yajur Veda.
