upanayana samskAra as mentioned in the above sUtrAs.  Sri Vidhusekhara
Bhattacharya also refers the shAbara bhASya for mimAmsa who too supported
the participation of shUdrAs in yajnAs (vide shabara & karka bhASya).

> In darshapUrNamAsa iSTi, while approaching the "haviSkrut" (the one who
prepares the havish), a brAhmaNa should approach the haviSkrut and asks for
it with the pada "Ehi"; similarly, a kSatriya should ask with the pada
"Agahi"; similarly, the vaishya should ask with the pada "Adrava" and a
shUdra should ask the havish with the pada "AdhAma".  This is mentioned
even in shatapatha brAhmaNa (vide 1-1-4-2).

> Shabara Swami also advises the diksha vidhi for shudras who are
participating in vaidika karma kANDa and instructs them to have only
"dadhi" (curd) prepared from vyAghra-kSeera (milk of tiger) and further
goes to the extent that even shUdrAs have got the adhikAra for sOma-pAna
(vide shatapatha brAhmaNa 5.5.4.9).

Vidhusekhara Bhattacharya would be highly appreciated.

essays were translated into telugu by a great telugu scholar, poet by name
brahmasri shatAvadhAni veluri sivarama sastry garu.
