**5.2 Other Vedas**

After Rigvida, three Samita schools appeared one after another, Sama, Yaju and Atkhwa. These Vedic studies ushered in a new kind of literature. The order of the hymns by Rigvida does not match the order of the sacrifices; there are so many hymns that have nothing to do with Miena or sacrifices.

The compilation of all hymns quoted on the occasion of Soma Yajna is called "Sama Veda".

## *5.2.2 The Yajur Veda*

Yajur Veda is a collection of prose mantras. Although Hotri is responsible for singing hymns during sacrifices, the first class of priests is the hymns sung by Adhvaryus, which is closely related to the dedication activities. Therefore, a separate training school was established to educate these priests. India's basic prose literature culminates in the Upanishads, while it exists in basic forms in Yajurveda. We caught a glimpse of the religious and secular aspects of Indian life in Yajurveda.

In the beginning, only three Vedas were welcomed. Over time, the fourth Veda was also called Atarvaveda. Its content is more original. Unlike the previous Vedas, most of the mantras in this Vedas are not adapted from Rig Vida. Atharvaveda has a distinct secularity, vivid descriptions of various arts and sciences.
