This Upaniแนฃad stands first in size among Principal Upaniแนฃads;content-wise also this has a unique place. It forms the end part of ลatapatha Brฤhmaแนa(เคถเคคเคชเคฅ เคฌเฅเคฐเคพเคนเฅเคฎเคฃ)belonging to ลukla Yajurveda &contains 6 chapters,in prose. twitter.com/i/spaces/1ypKdโฆ
Since this Upaniแนฃad consists of adopted chapters from a Brฤhmaแนa, it contains some portions which do not possess the essential qualities of a logical nature typical of Upaniแนฃads. We have to carefully avoid such portions. twitter.com/i/spaces/1kvJpโฆ
