Vedic Hermeneutics

This book asserts that the Veda is what makes known knowledge inaccessible to empirical means of knowledge and what does not contradict what is known through history, science, reason, and common sense. Additionally, it states that the Veda is what does not contradict what is known through common sense. Only information that is relevant to Dharma and Brahman is included in its content. It is possible to correctly comprehend it by using the concepts that have been outlined by the Nirukta and the two Mimamsas.

What the most influential tradition recognises as the Veda is, in point of fact, the Veda. A wise person once remarked, "The meaning of its earlier section is lighted by the smrtis, and the meaning of its latter portion is lit by the itihasa-puranas." Understanding its significance requires, among other things, familiarity with the bhasyas written by Madhva, Sayana, and Atmananda. This study makes an effort to demonstrate that this is the case. Both the assertion of the oneness of Being and the awareness of that unity may be found in the Rgveda. The Yajurveda imparts knowledge to us about the deed that is superior. Chanting and meditation on what the first Veda praises or depicts is at the heart of the Samaveda. The Atharvaveda proposes that being and man are quite similar to one another, if not identical.
