Abstract
The Sāmaveda teaches us the way of Vedic chanting in the sacrifices and other events. There are 2.637 verses in this Veda which have been kept as the third Veda in order of the four vedas. There are two major parts of Sāmaveda as gāna and ārcikā. Again the gāna section is divided into two as grāmageya and araṇyageya while the ārcika is also divided into two as pūrvārcikā and uttarārcikā. In this paper, the content of the Sāmaveda is scrutinized considering the subdivisions of the text. It is clear that the modern western and eastern music are based on this Sāmavedic melodies and tones. The Vedic accent and the correct pronunciation connected with meters are taught in this Veda. Here, the focus is on that explanation considering the value of the original Vedic chanting.
