The Brahmanas
The Brahmanas were made after the vedas to clarify the songs of the vedas. Each veda has a few Brahmanas joined to it. Kausitiki and Aitareya are the Brahmans books of the Rigveda made by Hotri clerics. Aitareya has 40 sections. Kausitiki is likewise called Sankhyayan Brahman. 'Taittiriya is the Brahman of Krishna Yajurveda and Shatpath is joined to shukla Yajurveda made by Adhvaryu minister Yagyavalka. It portrays the advancement of culture from KuruPanchal to Videha. The 100 parts of Shatpath are partitioned into 14 areas which are exceptionally thorough and significant of the multitude of Brahmanas. The Samaveda has three Brahmanas for example Tandayamaha Brahman, Khadvisha Brahmana and Jaiminiya Brahman were created by Udgatri ministers. The Gopath Brahman is appended to the Atharvaveda. In his Mahabhashya, Patanjali has depicted huge number of parts of Samveda yet just three branches, for example Kauthum, Ranayaniya and Jaimaniya are accessible. The name of Rishabha and Arishtanemi (Jaintirthankar) are found in the Rigveda climate of wildernesses were called Aaranyak (the word aranyak signifies 'the woods'). They manage philosophical conventions and otherworldliness to respond to the different complex inquiries, identified with human existence. Indeed, these are the closing part of the Brahmanas. There are seven Aranyakas, for example Aitareya, Sankhyayana, Taittiriya, Maitrayani, Madhyanandin, Talvakar and Jaiminiya. These books are against penances and ceremonies and lay accentuation on reflection and good ethics to frame an extension between the Karma Marga (method of work) and the Gyan Marga (method of knowledge).
The Upanishads
The word upanishad is a joined type of the two sanskrit word, for example upa and nishad which intends to plunk down close to somebody (here, the Guru) and get the mysterious information by him. There are 108 upanishads, for example Jesh, Kath, Ken, Mandukya, Brihadaranyka, Mundaka, Chhandogya, Taittiriya, Aitareya and Kaushitiki are some significant upanishads. The Upanishads are against formal examining the speculations of making of the universe and characterizing the principle of activity with the objective to achieve salvation through reflection and poise. The Upanishads were formed by a few learned holy people somewhere in the range of 800 and 500 B.C. The renowned teaching of Adwaitavad is learned in the Upanishads. The celebrated public assertion 'Satyameva Jayate' has been taken from the Mundaka Upanishad. Every one of the works alluded above are known as shrutis, which signifies 'disclosure'. The word shruti signifies 'hearing' and alludes to the rhythms of the boundless hearing by the spirit.
Vedangas
The six vedangas - Shiksha, Kalpa, Vyakarana, Nirukta, Chhanda and Jyotisha were made in the later Vedic period. Shiksha manages the suitable way to express the Mantras. Kalpa is identified with ceremonies, obligations and sanskara. Vyakarana manages punctuation and the study of language, Nirukta with historical background. Yaskacharya's Nirukta is exceptionally celebrated. Chhanda manages rhyming plan. Chhandasutra was made by Aacharya Pingle. Jyotish manages cosmology in which we track down the appropriate computation of the correct situation of the sun and the moon and different superb bodies to perform customs and services. Jyothish vedanga is a renowned book for it wherein we get upwards of 400 slokas.
Sutrars
Kalpasutra is very acclaimed among Sutra Literature. It has three sections - Srauta, Grihya and Dharma. Srauta Sutra clarifies the subjects of customs and different kinds of yajnas functions. Sankhyanan, Aashvakayan, Latkayan, Kattyayana and Bodhayan are the main arrangements of Sutra writing. Griha Sutra manages different sanskaras and the four Ashramas, for example Brahmacharya, Grihastha, Vanprastha and Sannyasa of human existence. Dharmasutra manages the public activity of the Vedic time where different set of principles and strict issue are clarified. Other than these we have Kaushiki sutra (Medical science and cures) and Sulva sutra.
