Guest guest Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 dear friend aadi as rightly explained by brother richardji mlbd.com is the best source for all ancient indian classics. besides you may try gitapress.org and also chaukhamba sanskrit pratisthan who both have good sanskrit and hindi collections of vedas and puranas. the four main vedas also have four corresponding upa (minor) vedas viz. aayurveda (medicine), dhanurveda (military science), gandharvaveda (music, art) and sthapatyaveda (architecture). besides there are eight vedangas or auxilliary sciences common to all the vedas and upa vedas viz. siksa (pronounciation), jyotisha (astronomy & astrology), chandas (prosody), nirukta (lexicology, etymology), kalpa (ritual rules), vyakaran (grammar), nyaya (statute) mimamsa - poorva and uttara (hermeneutics). the 18 puranas mentioned by richardji too have 18 corresponding upa (minor) puranas viz. santkumara, narasimha, nandi, sivadharma, durvasa, naradeeya, kapila, manu, usana, brahmanda, varuna, kali, vasishtha, laingya, samba, saura, parasara, marichi. there are 34 upanishads viz. rudro, bruhadaranyo, swetaswataro, kaivalyo, kalgano, kathivalliyo, taittareeyo, chandogyo, katyayano, brahmo, naarayano, hamso, paramahamso, bhaskaro, brhmabindo, kauseetako, mandukyo, mudgalo, aruno, amrutabindo, charcho, panchabrahmo, jabalo, vagisaniyo, bodhayaneeyo, mundako, aswalayaneeyo, maitrayaneeyo, sankhyasaneeyo, saunakeeyo, sivasankalpo, eesavaasyo, tejobindo. also there are 12 smritis viz. manu, atri, hari, vishnu, yagnavalkya, una, angeerasa, yama, apastamba, samvarta, katyayana, bruhaspati, parasara, vyasa, sankhalikhita, gautama, sataatapa, vashishtha. besides the above, there are also 12 shastras viz. charvaka, bauddha, kaulayaroola, saaketya, laukika, vaidika, adhyatmika, saankhya, patanjala, atimaaginka, maantrika, aadibhautika. india's civilisation is the oldest in the world and the takshasila and nalanda universities are the oldest in the world. the most signifying features of these hundreds of books mentioned above is that all of them were got by rote by the learnt sages and were taught only by word of mouth and only few hundreds years ago, these were given print shape. the britishers, the germans and the jews all came to india and learnt these and some even took the oldest manuscripts away to their homelands. for an ordinary layman, one lifetime is not sufficient even to complete mere reading of all these classics. there are some decades old institutions in delhi and chennai who have preserved some of these most rarest manuscripts including the most comprehensive mahabharat (which i heard in my childhood) with some 28 or 30 volumes and it was said that one lifetime is not sufficient to read that entire mahabharat. with best wishes and blessings pandit arjun 9948892439 ps: any spelling mistakes in typing the names of these classics above is unintentional and may be condoned. sacred-objects, "Richard Shaw-Brown" <rsbj66 wrote: > > Dear Aadi, > > Here is basis of Shastra: > > Vedas > The Rig-Veda > The Sama-Veda > The Yajur-Veda > The Atharva-Veda > > Upanishads > Brhad-aranyaka Upanishad > Chandogya Upanishad > Aitareya Upanishad > Taittriya Upanishad > Isa Upanishad > Kena Upanishad > Katha Upanishad > Prashna Upanishad > Mundaka Upanishad > Mandukya Upanishad > Svetasvatara Upanishad > Kausitaki Brahmana Upanishad > Maitri Upanishad > Subala Upanishad > Jabala Upanishad > Paingala Upanishad > Kaivalya Upanishad > Vajrasucika Upanishad > > Puranas > The 18 Puranas are: Brahma Purana, Padma Purana, Vishnu Purana, Vayu > Purana or Siva Purana, Bhagavata Purana, Narada Purana, Markandeya > Purana, Agni Purana, Bhavishya Purana, Brahma Vaivarta Purana, Linga > Purana, Varaha Purana, Skanda Purana, Vamana Purana, Kurma Purana, > Matsya Purana, Garuda Purana and Brahmanda Purana. > > There are the classics, Mahabharat & Ramayana > > The philosophical classics: Bhagavad Gita and Vedanta Sutras <---All > sampradaya's are based on bhasyas of these 2 works. > > Best wishes, > Richard > > PS: Try Moti Lal Banarsi Das in Chandi Chowk (Delhi) or any Sanskrit > books stores.
