In the PANCADASI, 1 vol, translated and commentated on by Swami Swahananda
(Ramakrishna Math), there is the mention of Kalpasutras.
Sloka IX.27
===========
Such rituals and methods of worship have been collected
and co-ordinated in the Kalpasutras. With their help
man, who has faith, may practise them without further
enquiry.
Swami Swahananda's commentary:
Kalpasutras, six in number, are compiled by Jaimini,
Asvalayana, Apastamba, Bodhayana, Katyayana and
Vaikhanasa. They are a Vedanga.
What is a Kalpasutra? What is a Vedanga?
