ٲṣāḍ (सत्याषाढ) is the author of a Śrautasūtra of the Kṛṣṇa-Yajurveda.—The domestic rituals are described in the texts called Gṛhyasūtras. There are numerous branches of the Veda which is often metaphorically described as a tree. ٲṣāḍ or Hiraṇyakeśin is a sub-branch of the Black Yajurveda. The Śrautasūtra of this branch is ascribed to ٲṣāḍ and the Gṛhyasūtra is ascribed to Hiraṇyakeśin. The Black Yajurveda is prevalent in the Southern India while White Yajurveda is prevalent mainly in the Northern India. Among the various sub-branches of the Black Yajurveda, ٲṣāḍ or Hiraṇyakeśin sub-branch is limited mainly to the Maharashtra. At present this sub-branch is comparatively less studied (than Āpastamba which is more popular in Andhra). So this school is rather neglected one.
