The Vājasaneyi school of the *White Yajurveda* evidently felt a sense of the superiority of their sacrificial lore, which grew up in these eastern countries. Blame is frequently expressed in the *Çatapatha Brāhmaṇa* of the Adhvaryu priests of the Charaka school. The latter is meant as a comprehensive term embracing the three older schools of the *Black Yajurveda*, the Kaṭhas, the Kapishṭhalas, and the Maitrāyaṇīyas.
