Brahma-vadya is the form found in the Kauṣītaki Brāhmaṇa,² and Brahma-vādya in the Taittirīya Saṃhitā³ probably has the same sense. - [Previous: v2.c4.s2.318](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v2.c4.s2.318) - [Next: v2.c4.s2.320](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v2.c4.s2.320) - [Up: v2.c4.s2](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v2.c4.s2) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v2.c4.s2.319](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v2.c4.s2.319) · Pramāṇa
