[Advaita-l] Information about Shanti Mantras

[Vidyasankar Sundaresan]

This is usually decided as per the Veda SAkhA to which the upanishat text
belongs. Except for the ISopanishat, each text occurs as part of a larger
AraNyaka or brAhmaNa text. The corresponding SAnti mantra is included as
part of the entire textual transmission.
