² For the conception of ṛta and the idea of sin in the Ṛgveda the following works may be consulted ‘The religion of the Veda’ by M. Bloomfield (pp 12, 125 ff), 'Religion and philosophy of the Veda and Upanishads' by Prof A. B Keith (pp. 35, 83–85 &c.), 'The Vedic idea of sin' by Dr. Henry Lefever (1935) One regrets to observe that Bloomfield's work is marred here and there by a certain levity of thought and expression out of keeping with the seriousness of the subject
