About The Book:

The Vedavikrtilaksanasamgraha is an important contribution to Vedic studies, originally conceived by the late Prof. K. V. Abhyankar. Although he was unable to complete it due to his untimely death, Prof. Abhyankar’s dedication is reflected in the rough draft he prepared, as well as the forty-eight pages that he personally oversaw through the press. With a deep sense of responsibility, Dr. R. N. Dandekar took on the task of completing this work, even in the face of numerous challenges.

This collection, comprising twelve treatises, some with commentaries, explores various modes of Vedic recitation, known as vikrtis, as well as related topics. The work offers a rich insight into the intricacies of Vedic chanting and its associated practices, making it an essential resource for scholars and enthusiasts of Vedic literature.

This book stands as a tribute to Prof. Abhyankar’s pioneering efforts and a sincere continuation of his scholarly legacy. It serves as both a study and a tribute to the scholarly devotion he exhibited throughout his life.
