The first of the three Kandas contained in the present volume continues the dogmatic discussion of the different form of soma sacrifice in connection with which two important ceremonies the Vagapeya and Ragasuya are considered. From a ritualistic point of view there is a radical difference between these two ceremonies. The Ragasuya or inauguration of a king strictly speaking is not a Soma sacrifice but rather a complex religious ceremony which includes amongst other rites the performance of a number of soma-sacrifices of different kinds.
