Vedic Reference
EnglishVāko-vākya, ‘dialogue, ’ is the name given in the Brāhmaṇas^1
to certain portions of the Vedic texts. In one place^2 the
Brahmodya is said to be a dialogue
very probably in all the
passages the Brahmodya is meant by this term. Geldner's
view^3 is different: he sees in the Vākovākya an essential part
of the Itihāsa-Purāṇa, the dialogue or dramatic element as
opposed to the narrative portion.

not meant, though Max Müller so
renders it in his translation of the
Chāndogya Upaniṣad.
