Brahma-veda had no limitations of any kind. 23 The word
brahman also signifies 'the religious expression and reli-
gious action as a whole. 24 Moreover, the AV, of all the
samhitas, contains the largest number of cosmogonic or
theosophic hymns which deal explicitely (X.2) or implicitely
(X.7) with the divine Brahman. 25 The beginning of the
Pr盲tisakhya 26 and of the second Parisista 27 reflect the
atharvanic connection of their Veda with Brahman. It is,
perhaps, due to this fact that quite a large number of
Upanisads was associated with the AV.
Finally when hierarchical recognition came to be
conceded to the AV, some place had to be found in the scheme
of Vedic ritual for the priest belonging to that Veda. But
the three main functions in the ritual, namely, the actual
performance of the various rites, the reciting of the
relevant mantras to accompany that performance and the
chanting of Vedic melodies had already been assigned to the
priest belonging respectively to the YV, the NV and the SV.
