This it is cumulative merit (samashti punya). Due to smooth functioning of the cycle of Dharmacharan”>Righteousness (Dharma) and the Final Liberation society becomes happy. The resultant benefit of a happy society is the Final Liberation. The Vedas are meant primarily to bestow the entire creation with happiness rather than to attain the Final Liberation (Moksha). The motive of the Vedas is to help man to remain within the limitations of the Vedas despite having lost the spiritual emotion that ‘He is I’ by retaining awareness of the soul principle or at least to prevent him from becoming unhappy in the materialistic world. This philosophy makes Hinduism a very tolerant religion, always ready to accept new ideas from other cultures. While it might surprise people how a book can have no beginning or end, the ancient Rishis who wrote these accepted that the complete knowledge of the Universe could never fit in any book, and so there would always be new things to discover. Any form of Knowledge acquired is considered as a Veda whereby it has no beginning or end. The Vedas are the most ancient books in the World, and they are the Foundation of Hinduism. While many historians regard the Vedas as some of the oldest surviving texts in the world, they estimate them to have been written down between 2500 and 500 BCE. Many Hindus believe that the Vedas were not written by anyone including Ishwar (the term used for God among the Hindus), but are eternally existing (apauruseya). They are considered to be one of the integral scriptural foundations of Hinduism. The following video shows some of our students reciting a small section of the Yajur Veda, one of the four main Vedas.The Vedas are an extremely large and comprehensive scripture that form the core of Hinduism. They include Jyotish (Vedic astrology), Shiksha (proper pronunciation), Vyakaran (grammar) and Kalpa (which is used in the performance of yagyas).Ĭentral to the ashram's education program is the practice of the Transcendental Meditation (TM) and TM-Sidhi Programs which embody the essence of the teachings of Yoga, Vedanta and the other Vedic sciences contained in all of the Vedic literature. The Vedangas contain the sciences of preservation and proper utilization of the Vedas. The Upavedas include, among others, Ayur Veda - the Vedic science of health Īnd Sthapatya Veda (Vastu) - the Vedic science of architecture. These four Vedas are expanded upon in the other aspects of the Vedic Literature like the Brahmanas, Aranyakas, Upanishads, Upavedas, Vedangas, Upangas, Smritis, and Itihasa-Puranas. It is currently preserved by only a very few families in India today and at the moment it is not taught at our facilities. The Atharva Veda is a somewhat distinct tradition from the other three Vedas. The application of the Vedic hymns to Vedic performances for the benefit of the individual, the community and the world. The Yajur Veda arranges the Vedic hymns from the perspective of yagyas: The Sama Veda presents the Vedic hymns in a flowing, melodic format. Its collection also contains most of the hymns in Sama Veda and Yajur Veda. The Rig Veda is the holistic 'encyclopedia' of Natural Law. The Vedas have been recorded and preserved since time immemorial by the Vedic families as the hymns of the four Vedas: Rig Veda, Sama Veda, Yajur Veda and Atharva Veda. Through self-referral interaction within themselves at the beginning of time they give rise to the universe and they continue to uphold it in all its diversity. They are the seed of all the Laws of Nature in the universe. The Vedas are the eternal, uncreated vibrations of the transcendental field of Pure Consciousness residing at the source of Creation.
