High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! ?rauta traditions are conservative ritualistic traditions of historical Vedic religion in Hinduism, based on the body of ?ruti literature. They persist in a few places in India today although constituting a clear minority within Hinduism. ?rauta is a vrddhi derivation of ?ruti, just like Smarta is the vrddhi derivation of Smrti. The most famous Srauta community are the Nambudiri Brahmins of Kerala. The ?rauta tradition as per the Vedas lays more emphasis on practice of the rituals rather than having a set of beliefs. The practices of the ?rauta tradition mainly consist of Yajnas. The Yajnas are divided into two categories, namely: nitya-karma and kaamya karma. Nitya-karma refers to those Yajnas that have to be performed daily or as per occasion. Kaamya-karma refers to those Yajnas performed with a particular purpose such as wishing for rain, cattle, overlordship or for a son (e.g. Putrakameshti).
