Q. Which of the following expounds the ‘Pranagnihotra (the fire oblation through breath)’?
Answer: Kausitaki Aranyaka
Notes:

• Two Aranyakas, the Aitareya and the Kausitaki, are attached to the Rig Veda. The Kausitaki Aranyaka expounds the pranagnihotra (the fire oblation through breath) as a substitute for the basic rite. This idea of the inner and mental offering as distinguished from the outer and formal sacrifice is an important element in the transition from the Brahmanas to the Upanishads.
