The Grihya Sutras

The Grihya Sutras are collection of Vedic domestic ritual texts, composed probably during the same period when the Dharmashastras or the Hindu law books were composed. They deal with domestic rituals such as conception, birth, initiation (upanayanam), marriage, death etc. This translation by Hermann Oldenberg (1886) contains Sankhyayana-Grihya-sutra, Asvalayana-Grihya-sutra, Paraskara Grihya-sutra and Khadia Grihya sutra.
