Holy Books of Hinduism

[Guest guest]

Vedas, so the Vedas have their affect through their influence on other Hindu

scriptures. Most Hindus revere the Bhagavad-Gita (Song of the Bhagava),

written around 200 BCE. This book sets out, in story form, the proper way to

behave and think. Among the principles it puts forward are: One should live

appropriately for the life (and caste) into which one is born. One should

be devoted to the form of God known as Krishna. One should trust Krishna

totally, relying on his benevolence, and acting out of devotion to him.

One's actions should be chosen by the inherent value of those actions, not by

any hoped-for benefits from them. The three ways of moving towards

liberation from reincarnation:

The way of knowledgeThe way of action for its own sakeThe way of devotion

thanks arvind kumar ji, i have 3 vedas with me which i read little bit.

I have the shukla yajur veda, taittiriya samhita of the krishna yajur

veda, The sama veda, and the atharva veda, from kaashi transalated into

english.

But i yet do not have the Rig veda.

Amongst i have been reading the atharva veda, and have completed 2

kandas.

U have not mentioned the yamalas

I also have the rudra yamala which is a discourse given to bhairav by

bhairavi....uttartantram.....its about the kundalani yoga and different

chakras and the nine primodial shaktis.

I have read 11 major upani9shads when i was in college.....now i am 29.

I always wish i had a good guru who would inculcate me into the

vedas........but good gurus are hard to come by.....i do the study of

the vedas and the shatarudriya, and the puraans all by myself.....

thanks for the information anyway....

regards,

kanishk

Holy Books Of Hinduism

 

The Vedas collections of Sanskrit hymns (written down

1200-900BCE, but based on older oral versions)

 

Brahmanas-ritual instructions (1000-650 BCE)

 

The Upanishads , mystical works (400-200 BCE)

 

The Bhagavad Gita (200 BCE).

 

All Hindus accept that the Vedas, a set of sacred verses or

hymns, written in the Sanskrit language around 1500 BCE, contain the

truths of their religion.

The Vedas are said to have existed forever, and the date above,

is merely when they were written down.

 

Not many Hindus have read the Vedas, so the Vedas have their
