The R̥gveda Samhitā Vāsantī Bhāṣya Vol.II

The Rgveda Samhitä, by Basanta Kumar Ganguly, is the collection of one thousand twenty-eight hymns, called süktas, perfect lauds. Each hymn is a collection of a number of rks, lauding the God of the hymn in verse. There are ten thousand five hundred fifty-two rks in the Rgveda. These hymns are arranged in ten books of unequal lengths. The first book was published as volume I in August 2004. The next three books (book two, three and four) are now published in volume II. There are forty-three hymns in the second book of the Rgveda Samhitä. Rsi Grtsamada has composed thirty-nine of these hymns. The other four hymns, all to Agni, have been composed by Rsi Somähuti, a son of Rsi Grtsamada. It is possible that all the forty-three hymns of book two have been composed by Rsi Grtsamada.
