Verses from Scripture on Hinduism1
Primordial Vastness is the sky. The Primordial Vastness is the sphere of space.
The Primordial Vastness is the mother, the father, the son. The Primordial
Vastness is all the Gods, the five sorts of men, all that was born and shall be
born. ------Rig Veda 1.89.10. HP, 114 May I attain
to Vishnu's glorious mansion where the faithful rejoice, where, close beside
the Strider, within His highest footstep springs the well of purest honey.
----- Rig Veda 1.154.5. VE, 152 I am the ruling Queen,
the amasser of treasures, full of wisdom, first of those worthy of worship. In
various places, divine powers have set Me. I enter many homes and take numerous
forms. ----Rig Veda 10.125.3. VE, 97 He who bestows
life force and hardy vigor, whose ordinances even the Gods obey, whose shadow
is immortal life -- and death -- what God shall we adore with our oblation? Who
by his grandeur has emerged sole sovereign of every living thing that breathes
and slumbers, he who is Lord of man and four-legged creatures, what God shall
we adore with our oblation? ----Rig Veda 10.121.2-3.
VE, 71 When a man knows God, he is free: his sorrows have an end, and birth
and death are no more. When in inner union he is beyond the world of the body,
then the third world, the world of the Spirit, is found, where the power of the
All is, and man has all -- for he is one with the One. ---Krishna
Yajur Veda, Shvetashvatara Upanishad 1.11. UPM, 86 Whatever exists and
wherever it exists is permeated by the same divine power and force.
----Shukla Yajur Veda, Isha Upanishad 1. EH, 45 Sivaya Namah
