I understand basic Sanskrit. Unfortunately, there are very few people in India who are fluent in Sanskrit. Many Indians think Sanskrit is a very difficult language to learn, but almost all the Indian languages are derived from it. We use many Sanskrit words in daily conversation without realizing. If we can be fluent in English, a foreign language, why not in Sanskrit, the civilizational language of this country for thousands of years? I hope we can revive Sanskrit in this country.
People who can understand suddh Hindi can understand 60,70 percent of classical sankrit People should first need to understand sudhh Hindi automatically they will understand some level of sankrit and it will not feel difficult language
@@greaterbharat4175 no bro I know Sudh Hindi and Sanskriti both are Different Yes I accept ki mai suddh Hindi nahi bolta but maine suddh Hindi pdhi hai orr suni bhi but Sanskrit se Different hai Bhot (meaning vice)
@@suryasingh9121 this is why I said some level we can understand Sudh Hindi and Sanskrit they have different grammar structure but sudhh Hindi use every ry word which rooted to sankrit (has same meaning and not outdated especially in classical sankrit) , hence if their is sentence in sanskrit other than grammar ( helping verb or structure)most can understand main objective words
I am not sure of other states in India, but am west bengali, and many people here who have studied in bengali medium school, sanskrit is a must thing that is taught (atleast that was there not sure if it is there in future generation or not) and i have neighbours who have triple MA in sanskrit, many people in here knew foreign languages and sanskrit fluently but now people are pushing their children to english medium schools like ICSE, english med schools were always there here but it has become more common now and am from ICSE board and I was never taught about my culture's history and ofcourse not sanskrit and so we dont find any need to learn the language as curriculum is very competitive. our education system needs reform, mad competition should be less and we need to be taught basic sanskrit, if my Parents knew sanskrit hindi bengali english fluently and also graduated decades back then when Internet was not there, I guess future generation can surely do that and should not be difficult. we just need to train our mindsets that way, the unnecessary competition of being top scorers without really absorbing much knowledge needs to be stopped for real!
7:32 I get your point, the answer is, many people see ved vyas as someone who compiled the knowledge along with some of his own inputs. You see, In Hinduism we are not required to believe in anything we are free to question even the validity of The Vedas and still be a hindu, you can read "nyāyasutra", it's an important hindu scripture, it describes about the way of reasoning, logic, questioning, epistemology etc basically it talks about how to get knowledge without being impartial. You can also read about the "Nāsadiya Suktam" which is in Rigveda, it questions even the validity of supreme being, it says whether there is a supreme being or not we don't know, From this Suktam comes charvaka philosophy which is an atheistic school of philosophy within the umbrella of Hinduism/Sanātan.
Here only Puranas are written by Maharshi Ved vyas ....... Purans are not the only thing. Like that in different state there are different authors with different books. Like for my state there are the five spiritual men called "Panchasakha"
Not in India bro, European also is in GERMAN 1200 universities they learn and teach Sanskrit medical and non-medical students 1100 is in USA but it's European world mentalities that they learn and teach veda studies and used European scientists name. Only limited people know Aeroplane and Aircrafts technology is fully depends on Rishi Bhardwaj , maharishi Bhardwaj wrote the making 500 types of aircrafts technology all documents stolen by Britisher and European banned indian people to learn those documents.
Hey Zuzana, Maharishi (Great Sage) Veda Vyasa is the compiler of Vedic knowledge. When the writing documentation system developed in India around 1500 BCE, he was responsible for documenting the entire Vedic knowledge which till that time was orally transmitted through Guru Shishya Parampara (Teacher Disciple Heritage). I think this will clear your doubt.
Sri Ved vyasa is a position given to different rishis of different timelines the ved vyas in this video is of our timeline his real name is krishna dwaparnay and this is the duty of the holder of this position to write /compile vedas /puranas for the next timeline all the stories and knowledge is gained by this ved vyas through other rishis orally and then as being ved vyas this is his duty to write them and to write them in such a way so that it will be less confusing because these vedas and puranas are of different cyclic timelines starting from the creation of universe to multiverse than 14 dimensions than our nine planets than their multiple cyclic creation, preservation and destruction it, s a very tough job to do only high calibre, yogi/tantric/rishi/sage can do this hence called as sri ved vyasa
The Vedas are said to be eternal scriptures. They were written down only when people's intellectual capacity started decreasing and writing became important. Otherwise it was being passed down orally before it. They are eternal in nature means that a advanced yogi can tap into its frequency and it will be available to him. Thanks ❣
fun fact: martial arts was of indian origin called as kalairipaitu the oldest form of martial arts in the world mentioned in the purana as well ❤❤ Vyasa is the legendary author of the Mahabharata, Vedas and Puranas, some of the most important works in the Hindu tradition. He is also called Veda Vyāsa (वेदव्यासः, veda-vyāsaḥ, “the one who classified the Vedas”) or Krishna Dvaipāyana (referring to his dark complexion and birthplace). Vyas Gufa is a small cave in Himalayan mountain, in Mana village near Badrinath. It is believed that Maharshi Vyas had composed Mahabharata and 18 Puranas in this cave. There is also another cave, Ganesh Gufa, nearby where Lord Ganesha had written the epic Mahabharata dictated by Maharshi Vyas. Sage Vyasa was the one who compiled the Vedas. He came up with the great epic Mahabharata. After conceiving this idea, he started to think of ways he could put this story out into the world. Lord Brahma told was the one who told Vyasa to make Ganesha his scribe.
Hey Zuzana, Veda Vyasa, though traditionally understood as 1 Person, is also seen as a Variety of People summarized as Veda Vyasa. I highly recommend Swami Sarvapriyananda's Videos on Upanishads and Vedanta.
Sanskrit is only spoken by a small community in India. But all the languages in India are influenced by it(Even the Dravidian Languages). Sanskrit though is not spoken is the basis of Hinduism. Almost everything important to Hinduism will be in Sanskrit.
8:39 Zuzana most of us reads the Bhagavad Gita the Vedas are complex for ordinary person's and it goes very deep plus it's written in Sanskrit so not many people can understand it. The gita covers that all in a simple form So try reading Bhagavad Gita one of the greatest religious book read by many legends Gita is not just only a religious book it's something more than that I hope you will love it
Ved Vyasa, or Krishna Dwaipayan, was the, great rishi, who compiled all knowledge, into books. In this process he, also, created different branches of learning, and as an aside, he was one of the greatest teacher, who taught, a plethora of students. In fact, to this day, when you hear a pandit reciting the vedas, anywhere in, Bharat, he is reciting the way, the first teacher, Ved Vyasa, taught. This is the greatness of the man.
The main issue is not lacking the knowledge of Sanskrit since plenty of translated texts are readily available but that we've already accepted the modern theories about everything. When we find contradictions we therefore tend to stick to our modern theories and dismiss those ancient texts as mere earlier attempts to understand the subject. We cannot really fill a cup that is already full. 🙏
Veda is written by 27 Rishi s and Rishika's Veda Vyas was the final author of Vedas. There was only one Veda in the beginning, Veda Vyas divided Veda into 4 sections because he foresaw coming generation will not have that intellectual and spiritual capacity. 😀😀 Veda Vyas original name is Krishna Vyas, the name Veda Vyas was given to him in honor because he was the last author of Veda he wrote Mahabharat and all the Purana.
His name is KRISHNA DWEPAYANA... We know him as sri Badaryan vyas Incarnation of bhagwan narayana sri hari as our 3rd guru in Dwapara Yuga ..after Dattatreya sri avdhoot....
Hari Om 🕉. Don't underestimate the power a Rishi (seer of truth in Hinduism 🕉️). Whether there was one or more than one Rishi, they are blessed by God to gain knowledge of universe and knowledge of God also. Rishi Vedvyas is very highly respected person in our Hinduism Dharm. Hari Om 🕉
I know Hindi which is derived from sanskrit. It would take me a month to learn and understand Sanskrit. After watching this I decided to learn it and I am quite excited to unlock our civilizational wisdom! By the way Veda Vyasa is a common name for a series of rishis, I think they had a continuous lineage. It is definitely not one person writing 18 different Puranas they are long and deep philosophically and storywise!
In India languages Marathi & Telugu have the most Sanskrit vocabulary. Hindi is not even close. Hindi looks similar to Sanskrit but trust me they don't sound the same. Hindi is a mixture of India and foreign languages.
@@pranav2055because scriptures like Vedas are mostly chhandas , they are poem you cannot understand Vedas or scriptures by your own ,you need guru for it ,or you need to be so much wise or superior knowledge of language (PhD shit ) to understand poetic words of scriptures
Purana and vedas were written by only veda vyasa before the beginning of kaliyug, which is 5102 but in today's date we hold last scriptures, because of invasion older scripture were destroyed and burned by invaders, and vedas is a creation of 27 sages. Veda vyasa is a compiler of vedias and distributed these mantras into 4 parts rig, yajur, sama, atharva
To learn "Sanskrit" totally you have to work on this like 1 years minimum, then your speaking ability will be like 1- 5 % , even me having basic grammar of Sanskrit, don't speak fluently till now 🥲, during Mughal and British rule , they destroyed " gurukul" system where a boy have to complete his studies under 'guru'( means sir ) until he became 25. In gurukul you learn about Sanskrit, meditation, yoga, warfare and many more.
When one says 'written', it simply means compiled into written format. Bharat has had an oral tradition of passing down knowledge from teacher (Guru) to Student for a very long time before shifting to written format because anything recorded on palm leaves is at a risk of getting disposed off easily or getting stolen. So yes, the Sage had compiled everything he knew across sources into textual format.
ved vyasa a deep scholar , connected, blessed by gods, compiled (with his team) and decoded various ancient texts.. lot of knowledge handed to him with deep meditation post research of texts and simplify while not missing any key points... able to experience and validate various extenal factors that can positively or negatively affect various types of life on earth/cosmos, env, events etc through purity of internal reflection and meditation.. that level of purity that could be achieved then..cannot be achieved now due to major changes in cosmos ( earth included) which leads to less pure environment to connect with various facets of existence..however its a cycle that can come back anywhere in cosmos based on intersection of key factors in universe coming together to create a new spark.
We had knowledge in ancient times in many past great civilisations, unfortunately great libraries were destroyed, so we invented again. Anyway, now we are in a global village so mankind can benefit all.
Veda vyasa was the one who wrote the puranas, and as you know the knowledge was shared by guru to his shishya or disciple by Shruti = listening. Gurus at that time used to have vast knowledge in their minds. Vyasa Muni was a great scholar of his time that's why he was able to write and integrate all his works in the form of puranas. Mahabharat is also his work.
Structure of Knowledge: *All knowledge is divided into 2 parts i.e. Para & Apara *Para means that which is beyond; which is obtained through the grace of Guru Apara means that which is not beyond- that which is enumerated and which is studied under a preceptor. Apara is divided into two types- Shruti & Smriti It’s is said in scriptures “Anantai Vai Vedah" ( The Vedas are unending) *Veda comes from Sanskrit root Vid which means to know. The knowledge which is the basis of all creation, which decrees the nature of things from stars to atoms is Veda. When Rishi’s dived deep into meditation they perceived aspects of this knowledge. *Shruti- that which was heard- is manifestation of knowledge that has been existing since the beginning of creation and perceived by Rishi’s & brought into the realm of expression. *Smriti- that which is remembered- comes from experience of Mantra durasth tas- seer of knowledge *4 Vedas, 4 Upvedas, 6 Vedanga & 6 Upanga constitute the Shruti whereas Itihas, Purana & Agama constitute Smriti. In each of 4 vedas there are different Pathas or style. Each version is called Shakha. *The Rig Veda consists the hymns in the praise of various divinities. The Yajurveda is the practical application of Rgvedic hymns in Yajna or sacrifice. SamVeda deals with the musical chanting of verses. Atharvaveda contains mantras with which one wards off misfortunes and brings about destruction of ones enemies. *Each Veda divided into Samhita: These are the verses or hymns. Samhita forms the base much text books. *Brahmanas: These are practical application of verses. They are commentaries on 4 Vedas dealing with proper performance of rituals. *Aranyaka: means belonging to wilderness. They discuss the significance of rituals & meaning behind rituals. These could be equivalent to research papers of modern times where scientists discuss significance and workings of nature. *Upanishad- Sanskrit meaning sitting close to the Master/ Guru. There are 3 different interpretations. Shankaracharya Adwait, Madhavacharya Dwait & Ramanujacharya Vishistdwait. Shankaracharya wrote commentaries on 11 upanishads which are considered to be the main upanishads. *Each veda has an upveda (like sub veda). Rigveda which is concerned with Philosophy & Structure has Sthapatya as it’s Upveda. Yajurveda concerned with method of Yajnas has Dhanurveda as it’s upveda. Samaveda associated with rhythms has Gandharv as it’s upveda and Atharveda with Ayurveda ( Ayurveda=medicine or how to keep ones mind and body healthy) *Vedanga. The knowledge of veda is so vast that we need some help in learning all of this mix Vedangs support the veda and enables us to use in daily life. *1st is Shiksha- method of learning, where we learn sounds of alphabets where they produced from & how to learn. 2nd is Nirukta-meaning of sounds.Stringing alphabets gives meaning to them.Deciding which words means what is role of nirukta. 3rd is Vyakaran- Grammar. Now we have words. We need to make sentences. This is science of grammar. Vyakaran & Nirukta give meaning to what we talk. *Chandas- The Rhythm. Even though we know the meaning of shlokas, we need to chant it in a particular rhythm. This is Chandas. Jyotish- is the Time. There is time for everything & jyotish tells us about that eg. Suprabhatam(early morning) is appropriate to chant in morning. *There are 3 parts of Jyotish- Astronomy Astrology and remedies. Astronomy is an exact science which helps us to calculate the position of planet duration of astronomical phenomena phases of moon eclipses etc. Astrology talks about effects of these movements on our life. 3rd aspect is upaya or methods to remedy these influences. The last one Kalpa- This vedanga decides what is appropriate for what situation. Purpose is to create harmony & Happiness in our lives. As truth is multidimensional. There are 6 upangas/ Shad darshan. *6 philosophies inherent in vaidic scriptures. Nyaya- deals with logic. How do we know what we have studied is correct or not. how to recognise the proper logic. So Nyaya is abstract logic. Vaishesika- which is specific. What is special about object vaishesika answers. *Vaishesika talks about matter & what it is made up of. Sankhya- where vaishesika goes into microscopic, Sankhya goes into macroscopic. Origin & Size of universe, what are the stars, how many lokas (dimensions) *Sankhya also concerned with analysis & divides creation into purusha & prakriti(masculine and feminine or the duality). The three gunas (good attribute) , panchkosha (5 elements)etc. These discussions found in Sankhya. Yoga- where Sankhya analyses, yoga synthesises. Yoga is not just asanas but a whole Philosophy. Refer Patanjali Yoga Sutra. *After we obtained depth in yoga & meditation 🧘♂️ The Puja or Yajna becomes more effective. Thus poorv meemansa deals with yajna, temples etc. Uttar Meemansa or Vedanta- Literally means the end of veda. It deals with supreme knowledge in Vedas. *Itihasa & Purana- Itihasa means it happened like that. Purana- Pure nava means that which is new in town.Thus this knowledge is so relevant & beyond time. It’s not surprising that most beautiful tools in spirituality- Bhagwat Geeta & Yog Vashishth - form part of these Itihasa *Agama: Even though ultimate knowledge sees advaita everywhere, yet for the mind. Worship is the easiest tool to reach the divine. These Agamas consider 1 form as supreme. Ganpathya- Ganesha as supreme. Shaiva- Shiva, Shakti- mother goddess, vaikansa& panchatantra - Vishnu.
@Zuzana It is very nice to see you reacting on these videos... And your way to seek knowledge about The root science and India and history is really appreciated... However, these channels are just letting people know about the source... Please know that there are over 1 Billion Indians have this information in their DNA... and friction of it are leading the world's greatest technological and scientific directions today... Rest of them have been victims of colonization or invasions from the last 1400 years...From the time of Islamization and later colonization... All they have done is to destroy our history and knowledge.. and plant their way of living... harsh...but reality
There are few villages in India that communicate only in Sanskrit. Some people in cities can communicate in Sanskrit too. Usually they are the teachers of Sanskrit teaching the language in a few schools .There are a very small number of schools where they teach it.
well putting it simply, the Hindi is written in Devanagari script which is the same script used to write Sanskrit (at least the most of it) so we can read it speak it but understanding is a bit different. As you may know that most Indian language is related to Sanskrit so we have words and sentence which might be similar to Sanskrit, so we can understand that part a bit. But other than that very few people know and understand Sanskrit even though we are taught Sanskrit from grade 5th to 8th (it's not that deep just basic Sanskrit). i think the government wants people to know and learn Sanskrit and they often launch some program but it's not on the level of Israel where they had massive push to speak and write Hebrew, but still there's an increase in number of Sanskrit teachers and professors schools and colleges are hiring so maybe they will give a big push in the future. I myself don't speak Sanskrit that much but my older cousin did his PHD in Sanskrit and for some time everyone was making fun of him but not anymore and i am planning to learn Sanskrit from him in future, also i want to make an online repository for scriptures in future as it will require some money and free time, although there are some people who started doing this so maybe i will lend my hand. sorry for making such a huge comment if anyone read all that.
We do study basic Sanskrit in schools so we are able to understand it but still it needs more recognition. Also Sanskrit is really tough to learn yet it has perfect grammar. Reciting the mantras and shlokas in Sanskrit give immense peace and motivation.i suggest you to react to some aartis, bhajans,mantras like Gayatri mantra,shiv tandav strotra, Vishnu strotra ,
Disclaimer: I am in no way an academic or expert on Vedas/Ancient Indian texts/Sanskrit. Having said that I would like to add my two bits here FYI. 1. Do Indians speak/write/know/understand Sanskrit? Ans: No. Absolutely not. As per 2011 census (the last one done in India) less than 0.002% of Indians spoke/comprehend Sanskrit. However there is a lot of Sanskrit around us in India. Understand this. All Sanatan/Hindu religious rituals are performed in Sanskrit. This is a massive usage. But the thing is these are hymns or shlokas and other ancient texts that are chanted in rituals or used as 'mottos' for Governmental agencies e.g. Satyameva jayate (Truth will prevail) etc etc. Many Indians study Sanskrit as a third or fourth language in school (this includes yours truly) for a couple of years. That is rudimentary learning and is seldom retained over time, unless the individual pursues an academic career in Sanskrit, which is miniscule in number. There is only one village in Karnataka state where the local language is Sanskrit, if I am not massively wrong, this village is one of a kind. What about the priests/purohits who perform the religious rituals in Sanskrit? They mostly memorize the stuff, although some may have basic or advance knowledge of Sanskrit. Now understand this. Vedic Sanskrit is very different from the post-Panini Sanskrit (Panini was a 4th or 5th century BCE linguist who codified the Sanskrit grammar that is used to this day). So knowing Sanskrit does not automatically mean a person will comprehend Vedic texts in its entirety. So, Sanskrit being a vastly understood language in India or anywhere is not true. 2. Do Indians read Vedas/Ancient Indian texts? Ans: Again. Absolutely not. Not even in translation. Most Indians have a good understanding of the two 'Itihaasas'(ancient historical texts/epics) Ramayana and Mahabharata from various sources: verbal storytelling traditions/TV series/comic books/translated abridged and unabridged editions/movies/drama etc etc. Other than that almost no Indian (except the academia or religious learners) read anything significant from our ancient texts. They might read some hymns for praying or some may have read The Bhagvad Geeta at most. This number is also quiet small. I personally have read The Rig Veda, The Bhagvad Geeta, Vishnu Puran, Kautilya's Arthshastra (Penguin English translations) and of course Ramayana and Mahabharata (in my mother tongue Bengali), and be assured I am a very, very small minority, this I say without any sense of pride (I mention it here since the subject calls for it). It's important to note here that The Rig Veda is written in a very poetic and philosophical way, things are often vague and peculiar and need interpretation. This is why the narrator in the video says 'one needs a guru/teacher to comprehend the texts'. This is absolutely true, but I can tell you if you actually take a dive in you will discover how illuminating ancient Indian philosophy is. Problem is, Indians do not read Rig Veda or other logical ancient texts like Arthashastra which has lead to a poorly-understood, ritualistic belief system which is mostly devoid of logic and the beautiful and pristine concepts have become dogmatic practices. For example, ancient Vedic people practiced both cremation as well as burial and a specific ritual was chosen over the other according to the situation, not some arbitrary illogical reason. It's all there in Rig Veda. Today if you tell a Hindu about burying a Hindu they will call you a heretic. Same goes for cow meat but I don't want to stir up an inferno here with an ill-educated/ignorant mob. 3. Regarding your question about Vedvyas or one particular saint writing all the texts, how is that even possible? Ans: All I have to say is this. We are dealing with a vast body of work which was composed thousands of years ago and over a thousand of years. Just to let you know that of all the ancient/historical Sanskrit manuscripts that exist today roughly only 10% has been read and translated. 90% of the texts are still unread. Who knows what lies there in. Academicians are working on them but the progress is slow, as the scholars are few. So its important that we keep this in mind: these are very old texts with arcane customs and peculiar way of narrations. Symbolism, poeticism, lyricism, rhythmic timing etc. were the basis of these narratives, therefore one must not take things literally but philosophically. One must set apart personal beliefs and study these critically as historical/anthropological documents. So to answer your question of course one person didn't compose the texts. And any logical person will know that and not fall for blind religious belief (thankfully Indic religions are not absolutist faith systems like say Islam, where scriptures have to be believed literally). Ancient Indian texts were formed over hundreds of years. The oldest ones, The Vedas were not even written. they were composed and memorized through the generations and were hence called 'Shrutis' meaning 'memorized through hearing.' 4. Ancient Indian texts are a large collection of incredibly well developed ideas of science, politics, war, philosophy, education, medicine, law, music, literature, poetry among many other things. Do keep in mind they are old, so some ideas/knowledge must be wrong in the contemporary sense, but when you compare this knowledge system with Abrahamic knowledge system one can see Indian system was millennia ahead. Some of the concepts are so complex, they are almost contemporary to particle physics or cosmology of our time in essence, if not in equations. Big Bang, Big Bounce, time dimension, multiple dimension, parallel worlds, wave functions, atomic theories. I'm not kidding. By now you hope you realize I am not one of them 'bhakt' type (blind-believers), so I wouldn't bs. It is sad how the West till this day malign India and its ancient past as something primitive, but that is actually a defensive stance, a veiled inferiority complex, as the West knows their ancestors were hanging in the trees and living in the caves eating raw meat when the ancient Indians were doing maths and cosmology and building megacities with advanced sanitary systems. Its a vast subject. Exploring it would take years, but if you are curious, my suggestion would be to dive in with a free mind and by beginning with authentic English translation. Learning Sanskrit and studying the original is reaching a bit too much, unless you are some mega-freak Vedic scholar to be, lol, then sure. 5. Although an atheist, I was born to urban Hindu parents who are believers. Me, I do not practice, never visit a temple, eat all kinds of meat including beef and is considered a low-life or even traitor (lol) by some of the family and friends. Thing is Sanatani/Hinduism in its essence is a fluid and free system: even if you are an atheist you are still a Hindu (Charvakism). Also being Hindu is closer to a civilizational/geographical denomination than a religious denomination but it'll become too long to explain this. Anyway, instead of being a ritualist and a blind believer, it is better to seek truth in the ancient Indian texts/traditions and the Harappan (Indus-Saraswati) Civilization through systemic, critical self-learning. 6. The topic is very close to me. I am in the process of writing a novel (contemporary crime) that touches upon on some aspects of Harappan civilization and the subsequent fake Aryan myth cooked up by the wh*te-supremac*st Germans and British colonial criminals. I thoroughly enjoyed writing this never-ending comment. Hope you had the patience to read it haha. Cheers. (Excuse typos/errors, I went in a flow :P)
The knowledge in the books when the knowledge would be checked with the facts one will find its all the bases of the current religions today, its all coming from here. and the knowledge is very much correct, once tested with facts one would find almost all correct. 0 was discovered way back way back, Jesus was in india, the teenage yrs are not known, and there are stories of vimanas, cosmos leaping spaceships, so even if one wants to just imagine one cannot imagine almost perfect facts, right. so its all correct. and video maker salute man, salute to u.
Rishis were not mere humans, they were enlightened super-humans. Some believe the earliest Rishis (Saptarishis- the 7 great sages) were not even humans. Rishis have existed on earth even when there were no or negligible human population on earth. When you see a halo around their pictorial depictions, it is done to show they are divine beings. White aura comes out of enlightened beings. Thanks❣
You are absolutely right actually, the Vedas have not been written by just one person. 🔷 Firstly, you need to undestand that the Hymns in the Vedas are called to be 'Revealed Texts' to these 'rishis' or sages, who pondered and meditated to discover these hymns which have per say, always existed but they discover it, its like gravity having always exited was discovered by Newton, likewise these rishis can be an equivalent to the philosophical ponderers and greatest thinkers of the ages unravelling the intricasies of the existence. 🔷 Now about 'Ved Vyas', let us first understand the meaning of his name itself and you'll understand his contribution, it stands for 'The Compiler of the Vedas'. So basically, 'Ved Vyas' compiled all these texts which were existing or discovered by various 'Rishis' or Sages but not structured in a proper format and chronology for ordinary people's consumption to understand these hymns along with the commentaries of the rishis to whom these 'Sacred Hymns' were 'Revealed'. 🔷There are very valid arguments to be made if Ved Vyas was just one person or the name of a group of people who worked towards this project, I personally believe this to be the case. 🔷Now about the 'Puranas' they were wholly devised by Ved Vyas but since they are historical records they were constantly updated by the 'Rishis' of the times regarding lineages, etc. Hopefully that helped😁, happy to help more, Namaste 🙏(Interesting Fact: Namaste stands for ' I bow to the divine within you ' )
10:35 in modern day we indian invest time in "Arthsastra" written by sage Chanakya during Greek invade India in command of Alexander ( almost during 300 bc ...).. that's why f.minister mr. Jay Shankar is gigachad. .. movie version of this book available in RUclips as "old Chanakya series" if you understand Hindi ( or with English subtitles) , this serial is very good for understand ancient indian international policy and indian civilization code of conduct.
Here only Puranas are written by Maharshi Ved vyas ....... Purans are not the only thing. Like that in different state there are different authors with different books. Like for my state there are the five spiritual men called "Panchasakha"
14:51 I can understand Sanskrit a little bit but that is Classical Sanskrit, there are two versions of Sanskrit from two different time periods, Vedic Sanskrit and the modern Classical Sanskrit, Vedic Sanskrit is a little difficult to understand because it was of the earlier period, it was sort of a free flow version before the proper rules of the language came in or formed and I think you already know that Sanskrit was the first language that became a structured language with a set or defined grammatical rules etc. P.S.- some texts are in Classical Sanskrit and some in Vedic Sanskrit, and also we lost many of the texts when the Invaders destroyed different universities or learning centers of India like Nalanda (about 8-9 million texts were destroyed in nalanda by khilji), Sharda peeth, Vikramshila, Takshshila etcetera.
Not many know Sanskrit in India, though thre is an option to learn Sanskrit in school and college days as an alternative language subject In fact I have some basic Sanskrit knowledge when I was in high school but speaking Sanskrit is quite difficult and very few scholars are able to do that
Veda vyasa(diversifier of Vedas) is not a Name ita a position - in the past there have been 27 of such vyasa's. But the one who compiled all these is know by his know Krishna Dwaipayan (dark kid born on an island) AKA Veda Vyasa
Well by mastering the Devanagari script, the writing system used for Sanskrit. This will lay the foundation for reading and writing the language. And Man now you are reminding me how I forgot all I learn about sanskrit language throughout middle/ school sigh I gonna do hard work again
We used to have Gurukul to update and add new information in the diff texts from time to time. So we don't follow the texts that were written a long time ago. But sadly Gurukul system have been destroyed by Mughals and British so this work of updating is no longer done Just commenting what I have been taught. And yes it was compiled by him in form of a text and created. I hope I am able to express myself clearly
15:18 But our Past Govts don't do much to deep study on Vedas as our first PM onwards neglected Sanskrit studies for their vote banks.... So much knowledge is in dark and I am happy that many Western universities are studying Vedas, Ancient Indian scripts and Sanskrit
Well it's not only about government but people by themselves now want to learn back the golden ways cuz many people have realized that knowledge is the Real Wealth.
@@zuzanareacts Vedas older then 1,500 BCE and part of Harappan culture = End of Indo-Aryan Migration hypothesis from Steppe = vice versa i.e languages which 3.2 Billion people speak originated from a North-Indian homeland = Threat to European Academic superiority = secret Orthodox Biases of churches. $$$ Game.
It is not just one man writing all these scriptures. Maharishi Veda Vyasa and his father Maharishi Parasara had Universities with 100,000s of Rishi, Munie and students, where they first time consolidated and first time encrypted what was already known vedic knowledge in the form of Shruti (spoken from Guru-to-Shishya). If you search details of each of the 18 Purana scriptures, you will find collection or research and school of thoughts by individual Maharishi dedicated for that subject. For example, Markhandeya Purana is collection of thoughts from Maharishi Markhandeya, Narada Purana is of DevaRishi Narada, Skanda Purana is of BhramhaRishi Skanda, etc.
Fact :- Sanskrit is the only Language in the world with have no single Abusive word that is why this is calked gods language. -2 Fact - Above 95% Hindus dont know his own Language Sanskrit
Hi Zuzana, happy Deepabali. In modern times - written documents exists only 1000 years. But in our Indian culture - it exists more than 10000 years. This is for your information please
Actually it not just one man, it is observations of many sages over thousand of years which which eventually passed to veda vyada. And he compiled it as one.
Rishis and sage have siddis of mahavidhyas and there are 10 mahavidhyas Great sages don't sleep They can survive without food and they can write any Books nonstop
Sri Ved Vyasa is considered to be sub-avatar of Lord Vishnu ( so No questions that he can't do, Please)...He simpified Vedas/puranas complexity...... Vedas is written by 27 Rishi s and Rishika's Veda Vyas was the final author of Vedas.
Reciting vedas is actually an oral tradition. But due to the declining human intellect through ages* Sri Veda Vyasa had to compile it and written down. The oral tradition is continue to be practiced to this day and is the oldest traditional and got UNESCO heritage tag, the written down scripture Rigveda itself is atleast 3500 years old so we dont know when the oral tradition actually started. Every Sanskrit Verse have rythm and tune (Samaveda) hence a grammatical mistake can change the rythm and tune thats how a perfect continuous system was created by the enlightened Sages. * According to Hinduism the time is cyclical and the Human intellect and body changes during these ages. In Yuga time cycle the ages see a gradual decline of dharma, wisdom, knowledge, intellectual capability, life span, emotional and physical strength. Satya Yuga - Virtue reigns supreme. Human stature was 21 cubits (33 ft 6 inches). Average human lifespan was 100,000 years. Treta Yuga - There was 3 quarter virtue and 1 quarter sin. Normal human stature was 14 cubits (22 ft 4 inches). Average human lifespan was 10,000 years. Dwapara Yuga - There was 1 half virtue and 1 half sin. Normal human stature was 7 cubits (11 ft 2 inches). Average human lifespan was 1,000 years. Kali Yuga - There is 1 quarter virtue and 3 quarter sin. Normal human stature is 3.5 cubits (5 ft 3 inches). Average human lifespan will be 100 years. In the present days we may be said to live in a Kali Yuga, which is said to have started in 3102 BCE with the end of the Mahabarata(Dwapra Yuga). This date is also considered by many Hindus to be the day that Lord Krishna left Earth and went to abode.
our modern logic always defends the statement that "This generation is the most advanced in all of human history". So it is always hard to believe that one person in the past can do/write/conceive philosophical concepts that are incredibly multi-layered/metaphorical in nature. IF you can find Hindu understanding of time (Yugas) and how human anatomy changed through these Yugas it will be mind boggling and senseless even. Satya Yuga humans were zillion times more capable of what we are capable of doing today.
Maharishi was left the earth approx. 5800 years ago , and his wrote everything past , present and future will held in the earth , his word's means word's of Lord Vishnu as same Adhi Sankrachariye ( Lord Shiva ) DNA child's surname is south Indian brahman *IYER*.
Well Actually Puranas and Vedas were compiled by Veda vyasa he didn't wrote them they were written by different people he just compiled all of those works and spread it throughout the country due to his relationship with Pandavas.
Few more of sanskrit related vids on shivoham and 'the sanskrit channel' (largest sanskrit related research and study chanel) playlists can help to introduce sanskrit and its related knowledge
Yoga 🧘♂️ is from the vedas. Vedas is always about knowledge not religious. Other religion text are commands do this that etc or you will be sinner. While sages questioned the vedas deriving their answers, also what amazing of the hindu religion is the temples, although pyramids are amazing, the ancient temples are even more amazing. Just see praveenmohan videos,
So it is based on observation…… not fantasy…… it talks about time, multiverse, multi dimension, different planets…….. different dimensional beings ….. even talks about aircraft and mercury engines….. it was debated among scholars and mathematicians then only accepted….. India literally invented maths if you read history….For example Aryabhatta he invented 0 , Gravity, Value of Pie and many more….. there were different universities like Taxila, Vikram Shila, Nalanda etc have been for more than 2000 years until Islamic invasion ….. the professors use to travel every year for conferences just like modern time and debates and proofs were given mathematically in order to be accepted as standard syllabus for all universities
in our school we learnt Sanskrit as compulsory till high school and French , English came later . Rishi Vyasa wrote the Puranas , but there are so many rishis who contributed to the knowledge bank . why in India we are more reasured that the were a thing to our culture in terms of our contemporary upbringing , is that lot of the modern science , including quantum science is rediscovering the knowledge that was written down by these rishis .so whether Vyasa who wrote the Puranas is beleivable or not is not the question , but unfortunately western science erasures these ancient texts of its legitimacy , and there is probably more to tally as science progresses and some of us Indians had too beleive in our own heritage often because of the western intellects approval and that is unfortunate .Therefore decolonisation in the head is key to rediscovery of the Vedas and ancient knowledge that is taking steam . And Btw , Hindus dont only believe the concept of " creation , preservation and destruction " represented by Brahma , Vishnu and Shiva main functions . But when you see that ancient worlds were very evolved in a different way not by material and texture of modern construt ,but of a different time and culture which got destroyed , and again recreated upto the current times which will perish in its own way , untill a new world and society will evolve in the relay of evolution . Most people the world will end but not literally any time soon before the sun dies on os or our planet loses the suns orbiy one day . but untill then the relay of new worlds and civilizations would have been born and died .
07:35 I asked the same question to my teacher and she replied that Veda vyasa is not a name of single person but it a position that was given to some extremely intelligent Rishis (teachers) so there are multiple Rishis who were on that position in different times Just like prime minister is post and person on that post changes
Hey Zuzana, if you learn Sanskrit, you will become very rich in wisdom and practical knowledge. Your thought patterns will create new neurological pathways in your brain, that will make AI look like a outdated invention. Sanskrit is key to unlock limitless potential in humans. Stay blessed. Danny, South Africa.
Secularism and Invision fucked up entire ancient education system of India now we have british education system.That was forced and nicely set up by our first prime Minister of India.and our education minister were from madarsa(islamic) education system due to which our history book filled with glory of all invadors(mugals).
I will say this again, If India revived its Gurikul system, we could again become the most civilized nation on Earth. Something which we are far away from right now.
I have studied Sanskrit, I could read it. But this is very elementary what I know. I do want to learn it further, there are few universities in haridwar, uttrakhand..... I might explore them...
i am an indian but i can understand sanskrit about 60 per cent,, or read about 50 percent ,, believe me sanskrit words are soooooo long ,,, so hard to read ,, EXAMPLE there is one song written by shri lanka's king for an indian supreme god (shiva) song name SHIV STOTRAM you can listen you sanskrit threw it and read lyrics which are totally in sanskrit....
This is the problem with outsiders. Hinduism can not be described on the basis of one book. Thats why the followers of Abrahmic religion make a sweeping remarks demeaning the Hindusim. Further Sanskrit is not spoken. It has to be revived like Hebrew
I understand basic Sanskrit. Unfortunately, there are very few people in India who are fluent in Sanskrit. Many Indians think Sanskrit is a very difficult language to learn, but almost all the Indian languages are derived from it. We use many Sanskrit words in daily conversation without realizing. If we can be fluent in English, a foreign language, why not in Sanskrit, the civilizational language of this country for thousands of years? I hope we can revive Sanskrit in this country.
It's so unfortunate 😢
People who can understand suddh Hindi can understand 60,70 percent of classical sankrit
People should first need to understand sudhh Hindi automatically they will understand some level of sankrit and it will not feel difficult language
@@greaterbharat4175 no bro I know Sudh Hindi and Sanskriti both are Different
Yes I accept ki mai suddh Hindi nahi bolta but maine suddh Hindi pdhi hai orr suni bhi but Sanskrit se Different hai Bhot (meaning vice)
@@suryasingh9121 this is why I said some level we can understand
Sudh Hindi and Sanskrit they have different grammar structure but sudhh Hindi use every ry word which rooted to sankrit (has same meaning and not outdated especially in classical sankrit)
, hence if their is sentence in sanskrit other than grammar ( helping verb or structure)most can understand main objective words
I am not sure of other states in India, but am west bengali, and many people here who have studied in bengali medium school, sanskrit is a must thing that is taught (atleast that was there not sure if it is there in future generation or not) and i have neighbours who have triple MA in sanskrit, many people in here knew foreign languages and sanskrit fluently but now people are pushing their children to english medium schools like ICSE, english med schools were always there here but it has become more common now and am from ICSE board and I was never taught about my culture's history and ofcourse not sanskrit and so we dont find any need to learn the language as curriculum is very competitive. our education system needs reform, mad competition should be less and we need to be taught basic sanskrit, if my Parents knew sanskrit hindi bengali english fluently and also graduated decades back then when Internet was not there, I guess future generation can surely do that and should not be difficult. we just need to train our mindsets that way, the unnecessary competition of being top scorers without really absorbing much knowledge needs to be stopped for real!
And Indian schools don’t teach any of this in the name of “Secularism” 😢😢
Sri Ved Vyasa did not write religious books these are all knowledgeable books
7:32 I get your point,
the answer is, many people see ved vyas as someone who compiled the knowledge along with some of his own inputs.
You see, In Hinduism we are not required to believe in anything we are free to question even the validity of The Vedas and still be a hindu, you can read "nyāyasutra", it's an important hindu scripture, it describes about the way of reasoning, logic, questioning, epistemology etc basically it talks about how to get knowledge without being impartial.
You can also read about the "Nāsadiya Suktam" which is in Rigveda, it questions even the validity of supreme being, it says whether there is a supreme being or not we don't know, From this Suktam comes charvaka philosophy which is an atheistic school of philosophy within the umbrella of Hinduism/Sanātan.
Here only Puranas are written by Maharshi Ved vyas .......
Purans are not the only thing. Like that in different state there are different authors with different books.
Like for my state there are the five spiritual men called "Panchasakha"
I am from Poland. I know little Sanskrit. This veda is a real education. Our space scientist still follow it that's why we are best in space science.
Not in India bro, European also is in GERMAN 1200 universities they learn and teach Sanskrit medical and non-medical students 1100 is in USA but it's European world mentalities that they learn and teach veda studies and used European scientists name. Only limited people know Aeroplane and Aircrafts technology is fully depends on Rishi Bhardwaj , maharishi Bhardwaj wrote the making 500 types of aircrafts technology all documents stolen by Britisher and European banned indian people to learn those documents.
Hey Zuzana, Maharishi (Great Sage) Veda Vyasa is the compiler of Vedic knowledge. When the writing documentation system developed in India around 1500 BCE, he was responsible for documenting the entire Vedic knowledge which till that time was orally transmitted through Guru Shishya Parampara (Teacher Disciple Heritage). I think this will clear your doubt.
3000BC
Sri Ved vyasa is a position given to different rishis of different timelines the ved vyas in this video is of our timeline his real name is krishna dwaparnay and this is the duty of the holder of this position to write /compile vedas /puranas for the next timeline all the stories and knowledge is gained by this ved vyas through other rishis orally and then as being ved vyas this is his duty to write them and to write them in such a way so that it will be less confusing because these vedas and puranas are of different cyclic timelines starting from the creation of universe to multiverse than 14 dimensions than our nine planets than their multiple cyclic creation, preservation and destruction it, s a very tough job to do only high calibre, yogi/tantric/rishi/sage can do this hence called as sri ved vyasa
The Vedas are said to be eternal scriptures. They were written down only when people's intellectual capacity started decreasing and writing became important. Otherwise it was being passed down orally before it. They are eternal in nature means that a advanced yogi can tap into its frequency and it will be available to him. Thanks ❣
fun fact: martial arts was of indian origin called as kalairipaitu the oldest form of martial arts in the world mentioned in the purana as well ❤❤
Vyasa is the legendary author of the Mahabharata, Vedas and Puranas, some of the most important works in the Hindu tradition. He is also called Veda Vyāsa (वेदव्यासः, veda-vyāsaḥ, “the one who classified the Vedas”) or Krishna Dvaipāyana (referring to his dark complexion and birthplace).
Vyas Gufa is a small cave in Himalayan mountain, in Mana village near Badrinath. It is believed that Maharshi Vyas had composed Mahabharata and 18 Puranas in this cave. There is also another cave, Ganesh Gufa, nearby where Lord Ganesha had written the epic Mahabharata dictated by Maharshi Vyas.
Sage Vyasa was the one who compiled the Vedas. He came up with the great epic Mahabharata. After conceiving this idea, he started to think of ways he could put this story out into the world. Lord Brahma told was the one who told Vyasa to make Ganesha his scribe.
Hey Zuzana, Veda Vyasa, though traditionally understood as 1 Person, is also seen as a Variety of People summarized as Veda Vyasa.
I highly recommend Swami Sarvapriyananda's Videos on Upanishads and Vedanta.
Also he is considered as the amsa avataram of Lord Vishnu.
You are right. Ved vyas is More like Compiler of knowledge ( puranas , Mahabharata) or who documented or structured in a more disciplined way
Sanskrit is only spoken by a small community in India. But all the languages in India are influenced by it(Even the Dravidian Languages). Sanskrit though is not spoken is the basis of Hinduism. Almost everything important to Hinduism will be in Sanskrit.
There is nothing called Dravidian/ Aryan its all Indian or Bhartiya.
In hinduism sages have power to cursed any god if that needed, "sages" means "Rishi". And rishi veda vyasa is one of them.....
8:39 Zuzana most of us reads the Bhagavad Gita the Vedas are complex for ordinary person's and it goes very deep plus it's written in Sanskrit so not many people can understand it. The gita covers that all in a simple form
So try reading Bhagavad Gita one of the greatest religious book read by many legends Gita is not just only a religious book it's something more than that I hope you will love it
I can read and write sanskrit but only basic ...
There is a village in india, and all people in that village only speak sanskrit ....
Ved Vyasa, or Krishna Dwaipayan, was the, great rishi, who compiled all knowledge, into books. In this process he, also, created different branches of learning, and as an aside, he was one of the greatest teacher, who taught, a plethora of students. In fact, to this day, when you hear a pandit reciting the vedas, anywhere in, Bharat, he is reciting the way, the first teacher, Ved Vyasa, taught. This is the greatness of the man.
The main issue is not lacking the knowledge of Sanskrit since plenty of translated texts are readily available but that we've already accepted the modern theories about everything. When we find contradictions we therefore tend to stick to our modern theories and dismiss those ancient texts as mere earlier attempts to understand the subject. We cannot really fill a cup that is already full. 🙏
Man is logical mind. Sage Veda Vyasa is supreme mind
Veda is written by 27 Rishi s and Rishika's Veda Vyas was the final author of Vedas. There was only one Veda in the beginning, Veda Vyas divided Veda into 4 sections because he foresaw coming generation will not have that intellectual and spiritual capacity. 😀😀
Veda Vyas original name is Krishna Vyas, the name Veda Vyas was given to him in honor because he was the last author of Veda he wrote Mahabharat and all the Purana.
His name is KRISHNA DWEPAYANA...
We know him as sri Badaryan vyas
Incarnation of bhagwan narayana sri hari as our 3rd guru in Dwapara Yuga ..after Dattatreya sri avdhoot....
It's not about who is writing.. it's about what is being written.
The name of these rishis were actually head of the universities as they found in Ramayana and Mahabharta and more.
aaaa - intersting
Hari Om 🕉. Don't underestimate the power a Rishi (seer of truth in Hinduism 🕉️). Whether there was one or more than one Rishi, they are blessed by God to gain knowledge of universe and knowledge of God also.
Rishi Vedvyas is very highly respected person in our Hinduism Dharm.
Hari Om 🕉
Veda vyasa has written it but the content was compiled from different sages like Markandeya, Parashara, Medha, Durvasa, Shuka, etc.
I see - thanks for clarifying
I know Hindi which is derived from sanskrit. It would take me a month to learn and understand Sanskrit. After watching this I decided to learn it and I am quite excited to unlock our civilizational wisdom! By the way Veda Vyasa is a common name for a series of rishis, I think they had a continuous lineage. It is definitely not one person writing 18 different Puranas they are long and deep philosophically and storywise!
aww - I feel so jelly!!! Good on you - report back if it indeed took a month :)
In India languages Marathi & Telugu have the most Sanskrit vocabulary.
Hindi is not even close.
Hindi looks similar to Sanskrit but trust me they don't sound the same.
Hindi is a mixture of India and foreign languages.
Lol, a month seriously 😅The sanskrit of the scriptures is not the same you study in middle school my friend
@@GG-pe4kztheir is Hindi and their is suddhh Hindi
I find suddhh Hindi close to classical sankrit
@@pranav2055because scriptures like Vedas are mostly chhandas , they are poem you cannot understand Vedas or scriptures by your own ,you need guru for it ,or you need to be so much wise or superior knowledge of language (PhD shit ) to understand poetic words of scriptures
Purana and vedas were written by only veda vyasa before the beginning of kaliyug, which is 5102 but in today's date we hold last scriptures, because of invasion older scripture were destroyed and burned by invaders, and vedas is a creation of 27 sages. Veda vyasa is a compiler of vedias and distributed these mantras into 4 parts rig, yajur, sama, atharva
To learn "Sanskrit" totally you have to work on this like 1 years minimum, then your speaking ability will be like 1- 5 % , even me having basic grammar of Sanskrit, don't speak fluently till now 🥲, during Mughal and British rule , they destroyed " gurukul" system where a boy have to complete his studies under 'guru'( means sir ) until he became 25. In gurukul you learn about Sanskrit, meditation, yoga, warfare and many more.
There is a village in India were everyone speaks Sanskrit. They will teach you Sanskrit within 1 month.
And in general nobody speaks Sanskrit. But it is in education system till 8th standard
I see
Has nobody mentioned it?
Zuzana, your Necklace is gorgeous! Suits you well!
😘👌
Oh thank you! ❤
Again an educational video !
Thank u😊
When one says 'written', it simply means compiled into written format. Bharat has had an oral tradition of passing down knowledge from teacher (Guru) to Student for a very long time before shifting to written format because anything recorded on palm leaves is at a risk of getting disposed off easily or getting stolen. So yes, the Sage had compiled everything he knew across sources into textual format.
ved vyasa a deep scholar , connected, blessed by gods, compiled (with his team) and decoded various ancient texts.. lot of knowledge handed to him with deep meditation post research of texts and simplify while not missing any key points... able to experience and validate various extenal factors that can positively or negatively affect various types of life on earth/cosmos, env, events etc through purity of internal reflection and meditation.. that level of purity that could be achieved then..cannot be achieved now due to major changes in cosmos ( earth included) which leads to less pure environment to connect with various facets of existence..however its a cycle that can come back anywhere in cosmos based on intersection of key factors in universe coming together to create a new spark.
We had knowledge in ancient times in many past great civilisations, unfortunately great libraries were destroyed, so we invented again. Anyway, now we are in a global village so mankind can benefit all.
Veda vyasa was the one who wrote the puranas, and as you know the knowledge was shared by guru to his shishya or disciple by Shruti = listening. Gurus at that time used to have vast knowledge in their minds. Vyasa Muni was a great scholar of his time that's why he was able to write and integrate all his works in the form of puranas. Mahabharat is also his work.
U looking so good . Congrats for 1k veiw . Keep it up❤❤
This is created through clairvoince activity.
Structure of Knowledge:
*All knowledge is divided into 2 parts i.e. Para & Apara
*Para means that which is beyond; which is obtained through the grace of Guru
Apara means that which is not beyond- that which is enumerated and which is studied under a preceptor. Apara is divided into two types- Shruti & Smriti
It’s is said in scriptures “Anantai Vai Vedah" ( The Vedas are unending)
*Veda comes from Sanskrit root Vid which means to know. The knowledge which is the basis of all creation, which decrees the nature of things from stars to atoms is Veda. When Rishi’s dived deep into meditation they perceived aspects of this knowledge.
*Shruti- that which was heard- is manifestation of knowledge that has been existing since the beginning of creation and perceived by Rishi’s & brought into the realm of expression.
*Smriti- that which is remembered- comes from experience of Mantra durasth tas- seer of knowledge
*4 Vedas, 4 Upvedas, 6 Vedanga & 6 Upanga constitute the Shruti whereas Itihas, Purana & Agama constitute Smriti. In each of 4 vedas there are different Pathas or style. Each version is called Shakha.
*The Rig Veda consists the hymns in the praise of various divinities.
The Yajurveda is the practical application of Rgvedic hymns in Yajna or sacrifice.
SamVeda deals with the musical chanting of verses. Atharvaveda contains mantras with which one wards off misfortunes and brings about destruction of ones enemies.
*Each Veda divided into Samhita: These are the verses or hymns. Samhita forms the base much text books.
*Brahmanas: These are practical application of verses. They are commentaries on 4 Vedas dealing with proper performance of rituals.
*Aranyaka: means belonging to wilderness. They discuss the significance of rituals & meaning behind rituals. These could be equivalent to research papers of modern times where scientists discuss significance and workings of nature.
*Upanishad- Sanskrit meaning sitting close to the Master/ Guru. There are 3 different interpretations. Shankaracharya Adwait, Madhavacharya Dwait & Ramanujacharya Vishistdwait. Shankaracharya wrote commentaries on 11 upanishads which are considered to be the main upanishads.
*Each veda has an upveda (like sub veda). Rigveda which is concerned with Philosophy & Structure has Sthapatya as it’s Upveda. Yajurveda concerned with method of Yajnas has Dhanurveda as it’s upveda. Samaveda associated with rhythms has Gandharv as it’s upveda and Atharveda with Ayurveda ( Ayurveda=medicine or how to keep ones mind and body healthy)
*Vedanga. The knowledge of veda is so vast that we need some help in learning all of this mix Vedangs support the veda and enables us to use in daily life.
*1st is Shiksha- method of learning, where we learn sounds of alphabets where they produced from & how to learn.
2nd is Nirukta-meaning of sounds.Stringing alphabets gives meaning to them.Deciding which words means what is role of nirukta.
3rd is Vyakaran- Grammar. Now we have words. We need to make sentences. This is science of grammar. Vyakaran & Nirukta give meaning to what we talk.
*Chandas- The Rhythm. Even though we know the meaning of shlokas, we need to chant it in a particular rhythm. This is Chandas.
Jyotish- is the Time. There is time for everything & jyotish tells us about that eg. Suprabhatam(early morning) is appropriate to chant in morning.
*There are 3 parts of Jyotish- Astronomy Astrology and remedies.
Astronomy is an exact science which helps us to calculate the position of planet duration of astronomical phenomena phases of moon eclipses etc.
Astrology talks about effects of these movements on our life.
3rd aspect is upaya or methods to remedy these influences. The last one Kalpa- This vedanga decides what is appropriate for what situation. Purpose is to create harmony & Happiness in our lives. As truth is multidimensional. There are 6 upangas/ Shad darshan.
*6 philosophies inherent in vaidic scriptures. Nyaya- deals with logic. How do we know what we have studied is correct or not. how to recognise the proper logic. So Nyaya is abstract logic. Vaishesika- which is specific. What is special about object vaishesika answers.
*Vaishesika talks about matter & what it is made up of.
Sankhya- where vaishesika goes into microscopic, Sankhya goes into macroscopic. Origin & Size of universe, what are the stars, how many lokas (dimensions)
*Sankhya also concerned with analysis & divides creation into purusha & prakriti(masculine and feminine or the duality). The three gunas (good attribute) , panchkosha (5 elements)etc. These discussions found in Sankhya. Yoga- where Sankhya analyses, yoga synthesises. Yoga is not just asanas but a whole Philosophy. Refer Patanjali Yoga Sutra.
*After we obtained depth in yoga & meditation 🧘♂️ The Puja or Yajna becomes more effective. Thus poorv meemansa deals with yajna, temples etc. Uttar Meemansa or Vedanta- Literally means the end of veda. It deals with supreme knowledge in Vedas.
*Itihasa & Purana- Itihasa means it happened like that. Purana- Pure nava means that which is new in town.Thus this knowledge is so relevant & beyond time. It’s not surprising that most beautiful tools in spirituality- Bhagwat Geeta & Yog Vashishth - form part of these Itihasa
*Agama: Even though ultimate knowledge sees advaita everywhere, yet for the mind. Worship is the easiest tool to reach the divine. These Agamas consider 1 form as supreme. Ganpathya- Ganesha as supreme. Shaiva- Shiva, Shakti- mother goddess, vaikansa& panchatantra - Vishnu.
Vedas were very ancient. Judaism in comparison, is very young when compared to Hinduism (sanathana dharma).
@Zuzana It is very nice to see you reacting on these videos... And your way to seek knowledge about The root science and India and history is really appreciated... However, these channels are just letting people know about the source... Please know that there are over 1 Billion Indians have this information in their DNA... and friction of it are leading the world's greatest technological and scientific directions today... Rest of them have been victims of colonization or invasions from the last 1400 years...From the time of Islamization and later colonization... All they have done is to destroy our history and knowledge.. and plant their way of living... harsh...but reality
very very sad
There are few villages in India that communicate only in Sanskrit. Some people in cities can communicate in Sanskrit too. Usually they are the teachers of Sanskrit teaching the language in a few schools .There are a very small number of schools where they teach it.
well putting it simply, the Hindi is written in Devanagari script which is the same script used to write Sanskrit (at least the most of it) so we can read it speak it but understanding is a bit different. As you may know that most Indian language is related to Sanskrit so we have words and sentence which might be similar to Sanskrit, so we can understand that part a bit. But other than that very few people know and understand Sanskrit even though we are taught Sanskrit from grade 5th to 8th (it's not that deep just basic Sanskrit).
i think the government wants people to know and learn Sanskrit and they often launch some program but it's not on the level of Israel where they had massive push to speak and write Hebrew, but still there's an increase in number of Sanskrit teachers and professors schools and colleges are hiring so maybe they will give a big push in the future.
I myself don't speak Sanskrit that much but my older cousin did his PHD in Sanskrit and for some time everyone was making fun of him but not anymore and i am planning to learn Sanskrit from him in future, also i want to make an online repository for scriptures in future as it will require some money and free time, although there are some people who started doing this so maybe i will lend my hand.
sorry for making such a huge comment if anyone read all that.
We do study basic Sanskrit in schools so we are able to understand it but still it needs more recognition. Also Sanskrit is really tough to learn yet it has perfect grammar. Reciting the mantras and shlokas in Sanskrit give immense peace and motivation.i suggest you to react to some aartis, bhajans,mantras like Gayatri mantra,shiv tandav strotra, Vishnu strotra
,
Disclaimer: I am in no way an academic or expert on Vedas/Ancient Indian texts/Sanskrit. Having said that I would like to add my two bits here FYI.
1. Do Indians speak/write/know/understand Sanskrit? Ans: No. Absolutely not. As per 2011 census (the last one done in India) less than 0.002% of Indians spoke/comprehend Sanskrit. However there is a lot of Sanskrit around us in India. Understand this. All Sanatan/Hindu religious rituals are performed in Sanskrit. This is a massive usage. But the thing is these are hymns or shlokas and other ancient texts that are chanted in rituals or used as 'mottos' for Governmental agencies e.g. Satyameva jayate (Truth will prevail) etc etc. Many Indians study Sanskrit as a third or fourth language in school (this includes yours truly) for a couple of years. That is rudimentary learning and is seldom retained over time, unless the individual pursues an academic career in Sanskrit, which is miniscule in number. There is only one village in Karnataka state where the local language is Sanskrit, if I am not massively wrong, this village is one of a kind. What about the priests/purohits who perform the religious rituals in Sanskrit? They mostly memorize the stuff, although some may have basic or advance knowledge of Sanskrit. Now understand this. Vedic Sanskrit is very different from the post-Panini Sanskrit (Panini was a 4th or 5th century BCE linguist who codified the Sanskrit grammar that is used to this day). So knowing Sanskrit does not automatically mean a person will comprehend Vedic texts in its entirety. So, Sanskrit being a vastly understood language in India or anywhere is not true.
2. Do Indians read Vedas/Ancient Indian texts? Ans: Again. Absolutely not. Not even in translation. Most Indians have a good understanding of the two 'Itihaasas'(ancient historical texts/epics) Ramayana and Mahabharata from various sources: verbal storytelling traditions/TV series/comic books/translated abridged and unabridged editions/movies/drama etc etc. Other than that almost no Indian (except the academia or religious learners) read anything significant from our ancient texts. They might read some hymns for praying or some may have read The Bhagvad Geeta at most. This number is also quiet small. I personally have read The Rig Veda, The Bhagvad Geeta, Vishnu Puran, Kautilya's Arthshastra (Penguin English translations) and of course Ramayana and Mahabharata (in my mother tongue Bengali), and be assured I am a very, very small minority, this I say without any sense of pride (I mention it here since the subject calls for it). It's important to note here that The Rig Veda is written in a very poetic and philosophical way, things are often vague and peculiar and need interpretation. This is why the narrator in the video says 'one needs a guru/teacher to comprehend the texts'. This is absolutely true, but I can tell you if you actually take a dive in you will discover how illuminating ancient Indian philosophy is. Problem is, Indians do not read Rig Veda or other logical ancient texts like Arthashastra which has lead to a poorly-understood, ritualistic belief system which is mostly devoid of logic and the beautiful and pristine concepts have become dogmatic practices. For example, ancient Vedic people practiced both cremation as well as burial and a specific ritual was chosen over the other according to the situation, not some arbitrary illogical reason. It's all there in Rig Veda. Today if you tell a Hindu about burying a Hindu they will call you a heretic. Same goes for cow meat but I don't want to stir up an inferno here with an ill-educated/ignorant mob.
3. Regarding your question about Vedvyas or one particular saint writing all the texts, how is that even possible? Ans: All I have to say is this. We are dealing with a vast body of work which was composed thousands of years ago and over a thousand of years. Just to let you know that of all the ancient/historical Sanskrit manuscripts that exist today roughly only 10% has been read and translated. 90% of the texts are still unread. Who knows what lies there in. Academicians are working on them but the progress is slow, as the scholars are few. So its important that we keep this in mind: these are very old texts with arcane customs and peculiar way of narrations. Symbolism, poeticism, lyricism, rhythmic timing etc. were the basis of these narratives, therefore one must not take things literally but philosophically. One must set apart personal beliefs and study these critically as historical/anthropological documents. So to answer your question of course one person didn't compose the texts. And any logical person will know that and not fall for blind religious belief (thankfully Indic religions are not absolutist faith systems like say Islam, where scriptures have to be believed literally). Ancient Indian texts were formed over hundreds of years. The oldest ones, The Vedas were not even written. they were composed and memorized through the generations and were hence called 'Shrutis' meaning 'memorized through hearing.'
4. Ancient Indian texts are a large collection of incredibly well developed ideas of science, politics, war, philosophy, education, medicine, law, music, literature, poetry among many other things. Do keep in mind they are old, so some ideas/knowledge must be wrong in the contemporary sense, but when you compare this knowledge system with Abrahamic knowledge system one can see Indian system was millennia ahead. Some of the concepts are so complex, they are almost contemporary to particle physics or cosmology of our time in essence, if not in equations. Big Bang, Big Bounce, time dimension, multiple dimension, parallel worlds, wave functions, atomic theories. I'm not kidding. By now you hope you realize I am not one of them 'bhakt' type (blind-believers), so I wouldn't bs. It is sad how the West till this day malign India and its ancient past as something primitive, but that is actually a defensive stance, a veiled inferiority complex, as the West knows their ancestors were hanging in the trees and living in the caves eating raw meat when the ancient Indians were doing maths and cosmology and building megacities with advanced sanitary systems. Its a vast subject. Exploring it would take years, but if you are curious, my suggestion would be to dive in with a free mind and by beginning with authentic English translation. Learning Sanskrit and studying the original is reaching a bit too much, unless you are some mega-freak Vedic scholar to be, lol, then sure.
5. Although an atheist, I was born to urban Hindu parents who are believers. Me, I do not practice, never visit a temple, eat all kinds of meat including beef and is considered a low-life or even traitor (lol) by some of the family and friends. Thing is Sanatani/Hinduism in its essence is a fluid and free system: even if you are an atheist you are still a Hindu (Charvakism). Also being Hindu is closer to a civilizational/geographical denomination than a religious denomination but it'll become too long to explain this. Anyway, instead of being a ritualist and a blind believer, it is better to seek truth in the ancient Indian texts/traditions and the Harappan (Indus-Saraswati) Civilization through systemic, critical self-learning.
6. The topic is very close to me. I am in the process of writing a novel (contemporary crime) that touches upon on some aspects of Harappan civilization and the subsequent fake Aryan myth cooked up by the wh*te-supremac*st Germans and British colonial criminals. I thoroughly enjoyed writing this never-ending comment. Hope you had the patience to read it haha. Cheers. (Excuse typos/errors, I went in a flow :P)
Thank you so much. Wow. I really wish you the best of luck with your novel!
The knowledge in the books when the knowledge would be checked with the facts one will find its all the bases of the current religions today, its all coming from here. and the knowledge is very much correct, once tested with facts one would find almost all correct. 0 was discovered way back way back, Jesus was in india, the teenage yrs are not known, and there are stories of vimanas, cosmos leaping spaceships, so even if one wants to just imagine one cannot imagine almost perfect facts, right. so its all correct. and video maker salute man, salute to u.
it seems very popular about Jesus being in India - I think Abjit said there is no proof in his videos.
Nothing in the Vedas can go unchallened..that is the beauty of the Vedas.
I am from West Bengal (a state of India), we need to learn Sanskrit at class 7 and 8.
interesting and hi to West Bengal - thanks for letting me know!
Most people can't speak or know Sanskrit in India. I really want to learn but on a pressure to study engineering 😢 Maybe I will try in future.
It is written n spoken also....but it not easy...only child can learn it ......fresh mind are perfect for learning Sanskrit
Rishis were not mere humans, they were enlightened super-humans. Some believe the earliest Rishis (Saptarishis- the 7 great sages) were not even humans.
Rishis have existed on earth even when there were no or negligible human population on earth. When you see a halo around their pictorial depictions, it is done to show they are divine beings. White aura comes out of enlightened beings. Thanks❣

You are absolutely right actually, the Vedas have not been written by just one person.
🔷 Firstly, you need to undestand that the Hymns in the Vedas are called to be 'Revealed Texts' to these 'rishis' or sages, who pondered and meditated to discover these hymns which have per say, always existed but they discover it, its like gravity having always exited was discovered by Newton, likewise these rishis can be an equivalent to the philosophical ponderers and greatest thinkers of the ages unravelling the intricasies of the existence.
🔷 Now about 'Ved Vyas', let us first understand the meaning of his name itself and you'll understand his contribution, it stands for 'The Compiler of the Vedas'. So basically, 'Ved Vyas' compiled all these texts which were existing or discovered by various 'Rishis' or Sages but not structured in a proper format and chronology for ordinary people's consumption to understand these hymns along with the commentaries of the rishis to whom these 'Sacred Hymns' were 'Revealed'.
🔷There are very valid arguments to be made if Ved Vyas was just one person or the name of a group of people who worked towards this project, I personally believe this to be the case.
🔷Now about the 'Puranas' they were wholly devised by Ved Vyas but since they are historical records they were constantly updated by the 'Rishis' of the times regarding lineages, etc.
Hopefully that helped😁, happy to help more, Namaste 🙏(Interesting Fact: Namaste stands for ' I bow to the divine within you ' )
10:35 in modern day we indian invest time in "Arthsastra" written by sage Chanakya during Greek invade India in command of Alexander ( almost during 300 bc ...).. that's why f.minister mr. Jay Shankar is gigachad. .. movie version of this book available in RUclips as "old Chanakya series" if you understand Hindi ( or with English subtitles) , this serial is very good for understand ancient indian international policy and indian civilization code of conduct.
Here only Puranas are written by Maharshi Ved vyas .......
Purans are not the only thing. Like that in different state there are different authors with different books.
Like for my state there are the five spiritual men called "Panchasakha"
14:51 I can understand Sanskrit a little bit but that is Classical Sanskrit, there are two versions of Sanskrit from two different time periods, Vedic Sanskrit and the modern Classical Sanskrit, Vedic Sanskrit is a little difficult to understand because it was of the earlier period, it was sort of a free flow version before the proper rules of the language came in or formed and I think you already know that Sanskrit was the first language that became a structured language with a set or defined grammatical rules etc.
P.S.- some texts are in Classical Sanskrit and some in Vedic Sanskrit, and also we lost many of the texts when the Invaders destroyed different universities or learning centers of India like Nalanda (about 8-9 million texts were destroyed in nalanda by khilji), Sharda peeth, Vikramshila, Takshshila etcetera.
Great analogy thank you babe the importance of Sanskrit

Veda Vyasa himself is an incarnation of Lord Vishnu.
Not many know Sanskrit in India, though thre is an option to learn Sanskrit in school and college days as an alternative language subject
In fact I have some basic Sanskrit knowledge when I was in high school but speaking Sanskrit is quite difficult and very few scholars are able to do that
Veda vyasa(diversifier of Vedas) is not a Name ita a position - in the past there have been 27 of such vyasa's. But the one who compiled all these is know by his know Krishna Dwaipayan (dark kid born on an island) AKA Veda Vyasa
Well by mastering the Devanagari script, the writing system used for Sanskrit. This will lay the foundation for reading and writing the language. And Man now you are reminding me how I forgot all I learn about sanskrit language throughout middle/ school sigh I gonna do hard work again
We used to have Gurukul to update and add new information in the diff texts from time to time. So we don't follow the texts that were written a long time ago. But sadly Gurukul system have been destroyed by Mughals and British so this work of updating is no longer done
Just commenting what I have been taught. And yes it was compiled by him in form of a text and created. I hope I am able to express myself clearly
Vyasa means compiler, so these books were compiled over a period by many compilers also referred to commonly as Vyasa.
I tried learning sanskrit in school as my 3rd language. There is a reason why its among the most hardest language to learn. Its more than a language.
Read Mahabharat and srimad bhagbat maha puran, bramha baibart maha puran, garg samhita. Hare Krishna Hari bol 👍🙏😀
15:18 But our Past Govts don't do much to deep study on Vedas as our first PM onwards neglected Sanskrit studies for their vote banks.... So much knowledge is in dark and I am happy that many Western universities are studying Vedas, Ancient Indian scripts and Sanskrit
Well it's not only about government but people by themselves now want to learn back the golden ways cuz many people have realized that knowledge is the Real Wealth.
that's great!
@@zuzanareacts Vedas older then 1,500 BCE and part of Harappan culture = End of Indo-Aryan Migration hypothesis from Steppe = vice versa i.e languages which 3.2 Billion people speak originated from a North-Indian homeland = Threat to European Academic superiority = secret Orthodox Biases of churches. $$$ Game.
It is not just one man writing all these scriptures. Maharishi Veda Vyasa and his father Maharishi Parasara had Universities with 100,000s of Rishi, Munie and students, where they first time consolidated and first time encrypted what was already known vedic knowledge in the form of Shruti (spoken from Guru-to-Shishya). If you search details of each of the 18 Purana scriptures, you will find collection or research and school of thoughts by individual Maharishi dedicated for that subject. For example, Markhandeya Purana is collection of thoughts from Maharishi Markhandeya, Narada Purana is of DevaRishi Narada, Skanda Purana is of BhramhaRishi Skanda, etc.
Fact :- Sanskrit is the only Language in the world with have no single Abusive word that is why this is calked gods language.
-2 Fact - Above 95% Hindus dont know his own Language Sanskrit
Hi Zuzana, happy Deepabali. In modern times - written documents exists only 1000 years. But in our Indian culture - it exists more than 10000 years. This is for your information please
Actually it not just one man, it is observations of many sages over thousand of years which which eventually passed to veda vyada. And he compiled it as one.
Rishis and sage have siddis of mahavidhyas
and there are 10 mahavidhyas
Great sages don't sleep
They can survive without food
and they can write any Books nonstop
most languages in India are more than 50% Sanskrit.. some much much more
Sri Ved Vyasa is considered to be sub-avatar of Lord Vishnu ( so No questions that he can't do, Please)...He simpified Vedas/puranas complexity...... Vedas is written by 27 Rishi s and Rishika's Veda Vyas was the final author of Vedas.
I chant few Sanskrit mantras during meditation
Reciting vedas is actually an oral tradition. But due to the declining human intellect through ages* Sri Veda Vyasa had to compile it and written down. The oral tradition is continue to be practiced to this day and is the oldest traditional and got UNESCO heritage tag, the written down scripture Rigveda itself is atleast 3500 years old so we dont know when the oral tradition actually started. Every Sanskrit Verse have rythm and tune (Samaveda) hence a grammatical mistake can change the rythm and tune thats how a perfect continuous system was created by the enlightened Sages.
* According to Hinduism the time is cyclical and the Human intellect and body changes during these ages.
In Yuga time cycle the ages see a gradual decline of dharma, wisdom, knowledge, intellectual capability, life span, emotional and physical strength.
Satya Yuga - Virtue reigns supreme. Human stature was 21 cubits (33 ft 6 inches). Average human lifespan was 100,000 years.
Treta Yuga - There was 3 quarter virtue and 1 quarter sin. Normal human stature was 14 cubits (22 ft 4 inches). Average human lifespan was 10,000 years.
Dwapara Yuga - There was 1 half virtue and 1 half sin. Normal human stature was 7 cubits (11 ft 2 inches). Average human lifespan was 1,000 years.
Kali Yuga - There is 1 quarter virtue and 3 quarter sin. Normal human stature is 3.5 cubits (5 ft 3 inches). Average human lifespan will be 100 years.
In the present days we may be said to live in a Kali Yuga, which is said to have started in 3102 BCE with the end of the Mahabarata(Dwapra Yuga). This date is also considered by many Hindus to be the day that Lord Krishna left Earth and went to abode.
Learning Sanskrit? 😂 No way, it's too challenging. I studied it from 6th to 10th grade, but today I don't recall anything.
ok haha - well I had to learn latin during my history studies and know nothing - really am not language talented
Veda vyasa did not create the Vedas he merely wrote it down and bucket into four categories
All the best to you on learning sanskrit
our modern logic always defends the statement that "This generation is the most advanced in all of human history". So it is always hard to believe that one person in the past can do/write/conceive philosophical concepts that are incredibly multi-layered/metaphorical in nature. IF you can find Hindu understanding of time (Yugas) and how human anatomy changed through these Yugas it will be mind boggling and senseless even. Satya Yuga humans were zillion times more capable of what we are capable of doing today.
Maharishi was left the earth approx. 5800 years ago , and his wrote everything past , present and future will held in the earth , his word's means word's of Lord Vishnu as same Adhi Sankrachariye ( Lord Shiva ) DNA child's surname is south Indian brahman *IYER*.
v interesting!
Well Actually Puranas and Vedas were compiled by Veda vyasa he didn't wrote them they were written by different people he just compiled all of those works and spread it throughout the country due to his relationship with Pandavas.
I'm reading Shiva puran right now..
amazing!!
Few more of sanskrit related vids on shivoham and 'the sanskrit channel' (largest sanskrit related research and study chanel) playlists can help to introduce sanskrit and its related knowledge
Yoga 🧘♂️ is from the vedas.
Vedas is always about knowledge not religious.
Other religion text are commands do this that etc or you will be sinner.
While sages questioned the vedas deriving their answers, also what amazing of the hindu religion is the temples, although pyramids are amazing, the ancient temples are even more amazing.
Just see praveenmohan videos,
Please also react on "DHANURVEDAM - A documentary on Ancient Indian Warfare || Project SHIVOHAM"
There is a detailed documentary about sri veda vyasa in the same channel, watch it later then you will understand 🙏
So it is based on observation…… not fantasy…… it talks about time, multiverse, multi dimension, different planets…….. different dimensional beings ….. even talks about aircraft and mercury engines….. it was debated among scholars and mathematicians then only accepted….. India literally invented maths if you read history….For example Aryabhatta he invented 0 , Gravity, Value of Pie and many more….. there were different universities like Taxila, Vikram Shila, Nalanda etc have been for more than 2000 years until Islamic invasion ….. the professors use to travel every year for conferences just like modern time and debates and proofs were given mathematically in order to be accepted as standard syllabus for all universities
I studied sanskrit till class 8 ...so I have some basic knowledge of sanskrit
Please read these books 🥰
in our school we learnt Sanskrit as compulsory till high school and French , English came later . Rishi Vyasa wrote the Puranas , but there are so many rishis who contributed to the knowledge bank . why in India we are more reasured that the were a thing to our culture in terms of our contemporary upbringing , is that lot of the modern science , including quantum science is rediscovering the knowledge that was written down by these rishis .so whether Vyasa who wrote the Puranas is beleivable or not is not the question , but unfortunately western science erasures these ancient texts of its legitimacy , and there is probably more to tally as science progresses and some of us Indians had too beleive in our own heritage often because of the western intellects approval and that is unfortunate .Therefore decolonisation in the head is key to rediscovery of the Vedas and ancient knowledge that is taking steam . And Btw , Hindus dont only believe the concept of " creation , preservation and destruction " represented by Brahma , Vishnu and Shiva main functions . But when you see that ancient worlds were very evolved in a different way not by material and texture of modern construt ,but of a different time and culture which got destroyed , and again recreated upto the current times which will perish in its own way , untill a new world and society will evolve in the relay of evolution . Most people the world will end but not literally any time soon before the sun dies on os or our planet loses the suns orbiy one day . but untill then the relay of new worlds and civilizations would have been born and died .
Jay shree Ram
07:35 I asked the same question to my teacher and she replied that Veda vyasa is not a name of single person but it a position that was given to some extremely intelligent Rishis (teachers) so there are multiple Rishis who were on that position in different times
Just like prime minister is post and person on that post changes
Hey Zuzana, if you learn Sanskrit, you will become very rich in wisdom and practical knowledge. Your thought patterns will create new neurological pathways in your brain, that will make AI look like a outdated invention. Sanskrit is key to unlock limitless potential in humans. Stay blessed. Danny, South Africa.
It's be so awesome to know that! I wish I really could learn this - Greeting to South Africa
Please React To Prachyam Sahebs ❤
The language is not Sanskrit.... it's sam+ skrutam = samskrutam...
Secularism and Invision fucked up entire ancient education system of India now we have british education system.That was forced and nicely set up by our first prime Minister of India.and our education minister were from madarsa(islamic) education system due to which our history book filled with glory of all invadors(mugals).
I will say this again, If India revived its Gurikul system, we could again become the most civilized nation on Earth. Something which we are far away from right now.
I have studied Sanskrit, I could read it. But this is very elementary what I know. I do want to learn it further, there are few universities in haridwar, uttrakhand..... I might explore them...
i am an indian but i can understand sanskrit about 60 per cent,, or read about 50 percent ,, believe me sanskrit words are soooooo long ,,, so hard to read ,, EXAMPLE there is one song written by shri lanka's king for an indian supreme god (shiva) song name SHIV STOTRAM you can listen you sanskrit threw it and read lyrics which are totally in sanskrit....
I see - thanks for sharing!
This is the problem with outsiders. Hinduism can not be described on the basis of one book.
Thats why the followers of Abrahmic religion make a sweeping remarks demeaning the Hindusim. Further Sanskrit is not spoken. It has to be revived like Hebrew
I think the more I try to understand it the more I realise how big of a gap in understanding there is. I see about Sanskrit.
Upto class 5 , it was almost compulsary to study Sanskrit language..!
