The Vedic religion is the primordial religious belief of mankind. It is not great just because it is ancient. Its perceptions are valid and applicable in all ages and in all societies. Its deductions on spiritual matters are simple, clear and stand to reason. The Supreme Being, the Souls and the Nature have no beginning and no end. God is the primary cause and nature is the medium of creation. Vedas do not subscribe to any sect or creed, they address the
The Vedic religion is the primordial religious belief of mankind. It is not great just because it is ancient. Its perceptions are valid and applicable in all ages and in all societies. Its deductions on spiritual matters are simple, clear and stand to reason. The Supreme Being, the Souls and the Nature have no beginning and no end. God is the primary cause and nature is the medium of creation. Vedas do not subscribe to any sect or creed, they address the whole mankind, not any particular group or clan.
The Vedic knowledge that was revealed in the dawn of creation, does not have any description of human history. The names of the lands, oceans, rivers, mouuntains, sages, kings etc. have been taken and formulated from the encyclopedic store of words available in the Vedas. Vedas do not describe human history.
Certain aspects of the Vedic religion are being incorporated in the present booklet in the form of questions and answers. Listeners generally put questions to the present author when he discourses on the Vedas on various platforms in the country and abroad. An effort has been made here to compile such questions and provide adequate answers in a compact from. Religious teachings do not form a part of curriculum in our educational institutions now-adays. Children do not get a chance to imbibe even a general
idea regarding their own religion.All these prompted the author to compile some fundamental questions with answers in the form of a simple book.
The Vedas, since the dawn of human civilisation have been regarded as the first Source Books of knowledge, given to man for his individual and collective welfare. They speak of eternal truth and not the history of earlier people as understood by many today. There is no primitivism in the revealed knowledge. It would be erroneous on our part if we interpret the Vedic verses anthropologically or archaeologically.

All that we want to know is the Rig, all that we want to do is Yajuh. The former is the Jnana Kanda and the latter is Karma
Kanda. It is commonly considered that the Sukla Yajuh is purely a Veda without any admixture of contents of later Brahmana texts.
On the other hand, in the Krsna Yajuh, original verses are mixed up with explanatory passages. Although Yajurveda is regarded
as a guide book for performing rituals, it contains all facets of excellent performances (Yajna) of man in his individual and social
life. These cover domestic services, the apparatus of goverment, scientific inventions, educational activities, charities and symbolic
rituals. Yajna is an approach to the Supreme Artist through His Supreme Art. The knowledge gained from the creation is made
available to common man.
The Yajurveda is a collection of 1975 verses spread over forty books (adhyayas).

and Uttararcika, the second part 1225 verses. In between there is a small part of 10 verses. In sanctity and liturgical importance,
Samaveda is next to Rigveda although it ranks third in the usual order of enumeration of the Vedas. During the Saman music, the
chanter, as he draws the notes from the vocal organs, indicates the same on the fingers of the left and right hands.
