Sage [[Vaisampayana|Vaisampayan]] did not want the wisdom taught to Yagnyavalkya to be wasted. He wanted it to be "absorbed", "re-imbibed" by someone with matchless ability. Now Sastras prohibit consumption of the vomit. The sage asked one of his leading pupil, Tittiri to consume this knowledge but without violating holy conduct. The intelligent pupil took the form of a bird of that very name - Tittiri (Partridge)- and absorbed the remnants vomitted by Yagnyavalkya.<ref name=":0" /> The teacher ([[Vaisampayana|Vaisampayan]]) was pleased and blessed him with an unasked-for boon, that this absorbed Veda" shall be known by the disciple's name (Tittiri's branch or Taittiriya).<ref name=":0" />
