It occurs in the Krishna Yajurveda, Taittariya Samhita, fourth chapter. The second part is called Chamakam (as the word “Chame” is often used) and occurs in the seventh chapter. Sri Rudram is a very sacred and powerful Vedic hymn. It is recited during Poojas and Homams by Vedic pundits for many benefits. 

Sri Rudram – Introduction:

In Hindu mythology, the god of creation force is Brahma, the god of preservation is Vishnu, and the god of destruction is Rudra. Sri Rudram acknowledges Rudra’s vital role. In the Vedic tradition, all gods have two opposing manifestations - peaceful and fierce. In the Rig Veda, Rudra evokes the fierce thunderstorm and lightning which kills men and cattle, but which also brings peace and plenty through the rain. Rudra represents the fierce aspect, while Shiva represents the calm aspect.
