The following is way too much information for a disamb page, so it was removed:

"Each Veda has its own Brahmana portion distinct from Mantra and Upanishad portions, containing rules of employment of Mantras or hymns at various sacrifices, with detailed explanations of their origin and meaning and numerous legends, each containing two parts 1) 'vidhi', rules or directions for rites and 2) 'artha-väda', explanatory remarks. The Rigveda has Aitareya Brahmana and Kaushitaki or Sankhayana Brahmana, The Sukla (white) Yajurveda has Satapatha Brahmana, the Krishna (dark) Yajurveda has Taittiriya Brahmana, Samaveda has 8 Brahmanas of which best known are Panchavinsa and Shadvinsa Brahmanas, and Atharvaveda has Gopatha Brahmana." - IstvanWolf 06:27, 22 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The dabpage should be under Brahma (disambiguation). Right now it's just slightly confusing since most articles are a "Brahma" of one sort or another and the rest are mostly adjective forms.

this is incorrect. The brahma forms are nominatives, while the brahman forms are nominatives. dab (𒁳) 18:09, 18 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
