Who has the mukta-s or the Released souls singing the sAma hymns in praise SrI BhaTTar uses the above interpretation and explains the nAma as "One The Taittiriya Upanishad attests to the fact that the Nitya Suris in Sri Vaikuntam please the Lord through melodious singing of SAma mantras- “Etat SAma gAyan AstE”.Īnd this webpage claims that Parashara Bhattar, a famous Sri Vaishnava Acharya said the same thing: The Sama Veda is almost entirely musical, and is most pleasing to hear-this Veda is sung and not recited, as is indicated by the usage, “SAma gAnam”. This webpage claims that it is from the Sama Veda, and that it's a hymn that's used by the gods to venerate Vishnu in Vaikuntha: So my question is, is the Taittiriya Upanishad quoting some hymn of the Sama Veda here? I overcome the whole world, I, endowed with golden light." This is the Upanishadįor those who don't know, Saman is a term generally used to refer to the hymns of the Sama Veda, which are set to musical melody unlike the hymns of other Vedas. He who gives me away, he alone preserves me: him who eats food, I eat as food. Before the Devas I was in the centre of all that is immortal. He who knows this, when he has departed this world, after reaching and comprehending the Self which consists of food, the Self which consists of breath, the Self which consists of mind, the Self which consists of understanding, the Self which consists of bliss, enters and takes possession of these worlds, and having as much food as he likes, and assuming as many forms as he likes, he sits down singing this Sâman (of Brahman): "Hâvu, hâvu, hâvu! I am food (object), I am food, I am food! I am the eater of food (subject), I am the eater of food, I am the eater of food! I am the poet (who joins the two together), I am the poet, I am the poet! I am the first-born of the Right (rita). The last of these is known as the Bhrigu Valli, and here is how it ends: The Taittiriya Upanishad constitutes the Seventh, Eighth, and Ninth Vallis (sections) of the Taittiriya Aranyaka of the Yajur Veda.
