Apastamba Smriti is an ancient Indian text belonging to the Dharmashastra tradition and is associated with the sage Apastamba. It discusses important principles of Dharma, ethical conduct, personal duties, social responsibilities, and religious practices. The teachings connected with Apastamba are particularly important for understanding the development of ancient Indian ideas about righteous living.

The Apastamba tradition gives importance to truth, self-control, purity, discipline, study, charity, and proper conduct. It explains duties related to different stages of life, including the life of a student, householder, and renunciant. It also discusses rules concerning daily conduct, rituals, family responsibilities, social behavior, and religious duties.

A major idea in this tradition is that Dharma is not understood only through written rules. Good conduct, the guidance of learned people, and established practices also have an important role in determining righteous behavior. This makes Apastamba literature valuable for studying ancient Indian approaches to morality and social life.

The Apastamba tradition is closely connected with the Apastamba Kalpasutra, which includes materials dealing with ritual, domestic practices, and Dharma. It provides an important window into the religious and social thought of ancient India.
