Guest guest Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 Bhagavita Gita Gita is often being described as a concise guide to Hindu philosophy and also as a practical, self-contained guide to life. Other noted experts have described it as a lighthouse of eternal wisdom that has the ability to inspire any man or woman to supreme accomplishment and enlightenment. Many Hindus are just considering Bhagavita Gita as a movie based epic. They are thinking that its just a movie. Any idea where we can get the eternal wisdom from the Gita. Any books explaining this matter or Movies. 4 Vedas A. The Rigveda The Rig-Veda Samhita is the oldest significant existent Indian text.It is a collection of 1,028 Vedic Sanskrit hymns and 10,600 verses in all, organized into ten books (Sanskrit: mandalas).The hymns are dedicated to Rigvedic deities. B.The Yajurveda The Yajur-Veda ("Veda of sacrificial formulas") consists of archaic prose mantras and also in part of verses borrowed and adapted from the Rig-Veda. It was compiled to apply to all sacrificial rites, not merely the Soma offering. There are two major recensions of this Veda known as the "Black" and "White" Yajur-Veda. C.The Samaveda. The Sama-Veda (Sanskrit s¨¡maveda ) is the "Veda of melodies" or "Knowledge of melodies". The name of this Veda is from the Sanskrit word s¨¡man which means a melody applied to metrical hymn or song of praise.It consists of 1549 stanzas, taken entirely (except 78) from the Rig-Veda. D. Atharvaveda A collection of spells and incantations, stories, predictions, apotropaic charms and some speculative hymns. Out of all the above sacred texts of Hinduism, I am still wondering which TEXT is our HINDU BIBLE?CheersChandran P Please consider the environment before printing this e-mail.
