Abstract

The well-known interrogation of Śvetaketu on life after death occurs in three parallel versions in ChU 5, 3, BĀU 6, 2 and KauṣU 1, 1.

I would rather assume a twofold, disjunctive question, followed by a concluding one. The agreement between the three versions is that all the questions are yes-no questions. In the KauṣU Śvetaketu does not know the answer; in the two parallels the questions start with “Do you know?” and Śvetaketu answers “No.” The disjunctive question in the KauṣU runs (after the introductory vocative, which does not belong to the sentence):
