Mopern Imiratjon or tHe Vepas, &e. 43 
Wir the arrangement of the real Védaas here indicated, the Pseudo- 
Vedas have tittle correspondence. ‘lhe manuscript No. 6, is entitled | 
6 Zozochi Kormo Bedo,” the Carma-Véda of the Yejush; this is the only 
allusion to the grand division of the Véda inte two parts, and this is not 
correct, forthe first part, is never called the Carma-Véda, but the Carma 
Caiida of the Véda. ‘The tithes of the MSS. No. 5 and No. 7, are 
equally erroneous; one is called the ** Chamo Oupe Bedo?? andthe * Ril 
Oupa Beds,” confounding the Ved proper, with the A 174s or denendant 
seiences necessary for the study of the Véda, called also, though impro- 
perly, Upavédas,* as gtammar, astronomy, &c. ‘Vae term Sumhitd is 
no where used; Sdcha is found in MSS. No. 3 and No. 4, which: 
are called the Sdchdé of the Rich, &c. and this word is alse used, 
to designate the several dialooues they, contain, the four first in the 
former, fer instance, being called the East, West, North, and South 
. Séeha of the Rig Yedam. ‘To this use of the word, the authors of the 
forgery have been led by its literal meaning: that it is rmever so applied 
in the real Véda, has been already shewn by the explanation eiven of its 
proper signification,——The other divisions found in this writing, such as 
Uildsa, and. Vistara in No. 3, Pallavam in No, 5, and Vivéea in 
No. 6 and 7, are utterly unknown to the Veda. 
ux form of these Pseudo-Védas is constantly that of a dialewue 
between a teacher and his pupil: now though instances of this occur, 
* Tur Upa Védas properly so called are now lost, imperfect imitations of them only remaining: they 
were 4yur-Veda, the science of physic; D,hanur-Ved«, the science of arms; and the Gandherva Veda, 
the science of music: these with the Widi S dstra, are, also, called Chutur Vidyi, the four sciences.
