Synopsis The present Pada Index follows, though with few substantial innovations, the Atharvaveda-padanukramani which having been published by the twin progenitors of our Institute, namely, Svami-s Vishveshvaranand and Nityanand in 1907 had since long gone out of print and, on account of its own usefulness for purposes of ready reference, been in demand. This Pada Index incorporates, in their own alphabetical order, all the Pada-s in the form in which they have been registered as well as accented in the Pada-patha of the Atharvaveda of the Saunaka's, except those relating to the 10 Khila-sukta-s, known as the Kuntapa-sukta-s (i.e. XX, 127-136). The latter have been left out, mainly, because their readings, in a very large number of cases, still continue to be as obscure as ever.
