The Taittiriya has three sections, called 'valli.' Only the first and third

vallis have multiple subdivisions. There one finds 1.3.1, 1.3.2, 1.3.3 etc.

or 3.10.1, 3.10.2, up to 3.10.5 etc.

 

In the second valli there are only simple divisions, such as:

 

2.1, 2.2, 2.3, up to 2.9. Some editors use threefold references even in the

second valli. In those editions the texts are marked as 2.1.1, or 2.5.1, or

2.9.1, which is the same as 2.1, 2.5, and 2.9 respectively.

 

The reference for "yad-bh…€ v€taƒ pavate" is 2.8 or 2.8.1.

 

The correct reference for "brahma pucchaˆ prati˜h€" is 2.5 or 2.5.1.
