Yajurveda
yajurveda
Noun
This term refers to a specific, sacred body of liturgical texts. Because it is the name of a unique, singular religious canon, it is treated as a proper noun and does not have a plural form.
In a religious or academic context, it is distinguished from the Rigveda, Samaveda, and Atharvaveda. While the Rigveda focuses on hymns, the Yajurveda is specifically associated with the ritual formulas and instructions used by the Adhvaryu priest during sacrifices.
