Vedic Reference
English
Śāṇḍilyāyana, ‘descendant of Śāṇḍilya, is the patronymic
of a teacher in the Śatapatha Brāhmaṇa.^1 Apparently he is
identical with Celaka, also mentioned in that text
^2 it is thus
reasonable to suppose that Cailaki Jīvala^3 was his son. It is
much more doubtful whether he was^4 the grandfather of
Pravāhaṇa Jaivala, who was a prince rather than a Brahmin.
1) ix. 5, 1, 64.
2) x. 4, 5, 3. The name Śāṇḍily-
āyana, like that of Sāṇḍilya, is common
in the Sūtras. See Weber, Indische
Studien, 1, 45, et seq.
3) Śatapatha Brāhmaṇa, ii. 3, 1, 34.
