Great talk !! I could correlate it as I have read both ' secret of the vedas' and ' the life divine ' The key to the vedas is sanskrit vyakaran through ashtadhyayi and nirukt. We need to go to the source I.e. only vaidic sankrit learned through अष्टाध्यायी could unlock the true secret of the vedas The same should be accompanied by Yoga practice.
He is completely ignorant about Swami Dayanand Saraswati. He does not agree with the view of Dayanand on the interpretation of the Vedas but he doesn't have the scholarship to challenge his interpretation so instead he tries to make Dayanand look dogmatic. 53:10 Look how he is misinterpreting Dayanand's position. Dayanand gave a lot of arguments in favor of his thesis about why Agni refers to Parmatma. Contrary to that, I don't think Sri Aurobindo presented arguments about his interpretation, it was his own imagination. He borrowed the idea of evolution and tried to make it compatible with his philophical system in order to look more credible, modifying and distorting the whole theory of evolution in this process. I am not being disrespectful to Sri Aurobindo because he was a far superior person than me in knowledge and character, I am just refuting his interpretation. But you are plainly being disrespectful of Dayanand Saraswati without acknowledging the fact that he was more educated in Sanskrit grammar than Sri Aurobindo and you, of course, so show a little respect here. You don't like his interpretation of Agni as Parmatma but you haven't even read his arguments, and I think you don't even have the capacity to grasp his arguments because you haven't studied Sanskrit grammar well enough, let alone be able to refute his arguments. And what's this emphasis on new generation? Does it mean you are going to impose your own meaning on Vedas, which suits most people, or is it going to be about what the Vedas actually say? You said the modern mind questions. Now, this is not the feature of the modern mind only, intelligent minds have always been engaged in questioning, but I think your own belief systems will crumble if I started to question and expose the logical fallacies in it and that of Dayanand will prevail if logic is the yardstick.

Key to Vedas is astronomy because Vedas is Itihasa documented with it. Namaskaram
I can't help comparing the speaker with another expert (won't be surprised if he the expert is the speaker's guru/mentor/hero)😊
