The world's highest scripture, the Vedas

The Vedas are the father of all scriptures in the world.  Other scriptural books are based on the Vedas.  The Veda is the largest text of the Hindus.  The Vedas are the names of the ancient sacred texts of Hinduism.  The Vedas are also called Shrutipani, as there was no system of printing in the past, so they were memorized by listening to each other.  The Vedas are the supreme and supreme scriptures of Hinduism.


Importance of Vedas:

Is the original Veda of Hindu culture.  It is our oldest scripture and the mainstay of Hinduism.  The Vedas are of extraordinary importance not only religiously but also historically.  This is the only way to know the culture and civilization of the Aryans of the Vedic age. The knowledge of how the human race and especially the Aryan race developed religion and society in their infancy is known from the Vedas.  There is no older book in world literature.
The Vedic language has proved to be much more helpful in determining the origin of the Aryan languages.  The Vedas are not only the oldest scriptures of Sanatan Dharma but also the oldest books of human civilization.  It is made up of the word Veda which means to know, to know, or to know.  To believe or not to believe does not mean from the Vedas.  It simply means knowing or knowingly knowing or testing knowledge.  That is, the path of perceived knowledge of tested knowledge.  In fact, the divine sentence is compiled in it.  The Vedas are the oldest written documents of human civilization.  28,000 manuscripts of the Vedas are kept at the Bhandarkar Oriental Research Institute in Pune, India.  Of these, 30 manuscripts of the Rig Veda are very important and have been included in the UNESCO World Heritage List.  UNESCO Rigveda etc.  E.  1800s  It has included 30 manuscripts from 1500 BC as its cultural heritage.  Importantly, out of 158 UNESCO cultural sites, only 38 manuscripts from India have been included in the list.
The Vedas are also called Shruti.  Shruti is made of metal.  Shru means to listen.  It is said that these mantras were recited indirectly by God Himself at a time when the ancient ascetics were immersed in deep penance.  God first gave the knowledge of the Vedas to four sages: Agni, Vayu, Angira, and Aditya.  The Vedas are unique works of the oral tradition of the Vedic period which have been going on for the last six to seven thousand BC.  Scholars have called the combination of Samhita, Brahmana, Aranyaka and Upanishad as Veda.  These four parts are collectively called Shruti.
The rest of the texts fall under memory.  The Vedic code is part of the mantra.  Vedic mantras are full of beauty.  When the Vedic sages recite the Vedas aloud, the mind becomes happy.  Those who listen to the recitation of the Vedas are also fascinated.  Sacrifices are discussed in the Brahmanical part of the Vedas.  It explains the mantras of the Vedas.  It describes in detail the constitution and science of Yajna.  The main Brahmanical texts are as follows: Aitareya, Taittiriya, and Shatapatha.  Aranyaka is also an important part of the Vedas.  In Sanskrit, the forest is called Aranya.  Therefore, the texts that originated in the forest fall under the forest.  The five main Aranyakas are as follows: Aitareya, Shankhayan, Brihadaranyaka, Taittiriya, and Tavalkar.  The Upanishads are the top part of the Vedas.  It is also called Vedanta as it is the best last part of Upanishad Veda.  It contains profound philosophical and scientific descriptions of God, creation, and the soul.  The actual number of Upanishads is considered to be 1180 but at present only 108 numbers of Upanishads are available.
The main Upanishads in it are as follows: Ish, Kane, Kath, Prashna, Mundak, Mandukya, Taittariya, Aitareya, Chhandayagya, Brihadaranyaka and Shwetaswer.  Numerous branches of Vedas, Brahmanical texts, Aranyakas, and Upanishads have been lost.  At present, there are ten Upanishads of Rig Veda, thirty-two of Krishna Yajurveda, sixteen of Sama Veda, and thirty-one of Atharva Veda.  Professor Winternitz considers the period of creation of Vedic literature to be 2000 to 2500 BC.  But the composition of the Vedas, in particular, did not take place in a certain period.  That is to say, it was gradually composed and first of all three parts of Veda were compiled in which Rig Veda, Sama Veda, and Yajurveda were compiled.  It is also called Vedatrayi.

According to the Sanatan belief, the division of the Vedas took place during the pre-birth Pururava sage of Ram Chandra.  Later, Atharva sages composed Atharva Vedas.  According to some scholars, after the end of the Dwapar era in the time of Lord Krishna, Maharshi Vedavyas divided the Veda into four parts.  He taught these four parts to four disciples, Pail, Vaishampayan, Jamini, and Sumantu respectively.  In that course, he gave the responsibility of Rig Veda to Pailai, Yajurveda to Vaishampayan, Sama Veda to Jamini, and Atharva Veda to Sumantu.  Based on this, the Vedas are 6508 years older than today.  This cannot be denied in the same way because the facts that Krishna happened on this earth 5112 years ago have been found.  The Vedas have four divisions: Rig Veda, Yajurveda, Sama Veda, and Atharva Veda.  Rig-position, yaju-transformation, sama-dynamic, and atharva-jad.

                       Rik means religion, Yaju means salvation, Sam means work, Atharva means meaning.  On this basis, Dharmashastra, Arthashastra, Kamashastra, and Mokshashastra have been composed.
