वेद [ veda ] [ veda ]1 m. ( fr. √ 1. [ vid ] q.v.) knowledge , true or sacred knowledge or lore , knowledge of ritual Lit. RV. Lit. AitBr.

N. of certain celebrated works which constitute the basis of the first period of the Hindū religion (these works were primarily three , viz. 1. the Ṛig-veda , 2. the Yajur-veda ( of which there are , however , two divisions see [ taittirīya-saṃhitā ] , [ vājasaneyi-saṃhitā ] ) , 3. the Sāma-veda ; these three works are sometimes called collectively [ trayī ] , " the triple Vidyā " or " threefold knowledge " , but the Ṛig-veda is really the only original work of the three , and much the most ancient ( the oldest of its hymns being assigned by some who rely on certain astronomical calculations to a period between 4000 and 2500 B.C. , before the settlement of the Āryans in India ; and by others who adopt a different reckoning to a period between 1400 and 1000 B.C. , when the Āryans had settled down in the Panjāb ) ; subsequently a fourth Veda was added , called the Atharva-veda , which was probably not completely accepted till after Manu , as his law-book often speaks of the three Vedas-calling them [ trayam brahma sanātanam ] , " the triple eternal Veda " , but only once ( Lit. xi , 33 ) mentions the revelation made to Atharvan and Aṅgiras , without , however , calling it by the later name of Atharva-veda ; each of the four Vedas has two distinct parts , viz. 1. Mantra , i.e. words of prayer and adoration often addressed either to fire or to some form of the sun or to some form of the air , sky , wind , and praying for health , wealth , long life , cattle , offspring , victory , and even forgiveness of sins , and 2. Brāhmaṇa , consisting of Vidhi and Artha-vāda , i.e. directions for the detail of the ceremonies at which the Mantras were to be used and explanations of the legends connected with the Mantras ( see [ brāhmaṇa ] , [ vidhi ] ) , both these portions being termed [ śruti ] , revelation orally communicated by the Deity , and heard but not composed or written down by men ( cf. Lit. IW. 24 ) , although it is certain that both Mantras and Brāhmaṇas were compositions spread over a considerable period , much of the latter being comparatively modern ; as the Vedas are properly three , so the Mantras are properly of three forms , 1. Ṛic , which are verses of praise in metre , and intended for loud recitation ; 2. Yajus , which are in prose , and intended for recitation in a lower tone at sacrifices ; 3. Sāman , which are in metre , and intended for chanting at the Soma or Moon-plant ceremonies , the Mantras of the fourth or Atharva-veda having no special name ; but it must be borne in mind that the Yajur and Sāma-veda hymns , especially the latter , besides their own Mantras , borrow largely from the Ṛig-veda ; the Yajur-veda and Sāma-veda being in fact not so much collections of prayers and hymns as special prayer- and hymn-books intended as manuals for the Adhvaryu and Udgātṛi priests respectively ( see [ yajur-veda ] , [ sāma-veda ] ) ; the Atharva-veda , on the other hand , is , like the Ṛig-veda , a real collection of original hymns mixed up with incantations , borrowing little from the Ṛig and having no direct relation to sacrifices , but supposed by mere recitation to produce long life , to cure diseases , to effect the ruin of enemies ; each of the four Vedas seems to have passed through numerous Śākhās or schools , giving rise to various recensions of the text , though the Ṛig-veda is only preserved in the Śākala recension , while a second recension , that of the Bhāshkalas , is only known by name ; a tradition makes Vyāsa the compiler and arranger of the Vedas in their present form: they each have an Index or Anukramaṇī ( q.v. ) , the principal work of this kind being the general Index or Sarvânukramaṇī ( q.v. ) ; out of the Brāhmaṇa portion of the Veda grew two other departments of Vedic literature , sometimes included under the general name Veda , viz. the strings of aphoristic rules , called Sūtras ( q.v. ) , and the mystical treatises on the nature of God and the relation of soul and matter , called Upanishad ( q.v. ) , which were appended to the Āraṇyakas ( q.v. ) , and became the real Veda of thinking Hindūs , leading to the Darśanas or systems of philosophy ; in the later literature the name of " fifth Veda " is accorded to the Itihāsas or legendary epic poems and to the Purāṇas , and certain secondary Vedas or Upa-vedas ( q.v. ) are enumerated ; the Vedâṅgas or works serving as limbs ( for preserving the integrity ) of the Veda are explained under [ vedāṅga ] below: the only other works included under the head of Veda being the Pariśishṭas , which supply rules for the ritual omitted in the Sūtras ; in the Bṛihad-āraṇyaka Upanishad the Vedas are represented as the breathings of Brahmā , while in some of the Purāṇas the four Vedas are said to have issued out of the four mouths of the four-faced Brahmā and in the Vishṇu-Purāṇa the Veda and Vishṇu are identified) Lit.

[ chandas ] , " metre " ( represented by a treatise ascribed to Piṅgala-nāga , which , however , treats of Prākṛit as well as Saṃskṛit metres , and includes only a few of the leading Vedic metres ) : 3. [ vyākaraṇa ] , " linguistic analysis or grammar " ( represented by Pāṇini's celebrated Sūtras ) : 4. [ nirukta ] , " explanation of difficult Vedic words " ( cf. [ yāska ] ) : 5. [ jyotiṣa ] , " astronomy " , or rather the Vedic calendar ( represented by a small tract , the object of which is to fix the most auspicious days for sacrifices ) : 6. [ kalpa ] , " ceremonial " , represented by a large number of Sūtra works ( cf. [ sūtra ] ) : the first and second of these Vedâṅgas are said to be intended to secure the correct reading or recitation of the Veda , the third and fourth the understanding of it , and the fifth and sixth its proper employment at sacrifices: the Vedâṅgas are alluded to by Manu , who calls them , in Lit. iii , 184 , Pravacanas , " expositions " , a term which is said to be also applied to the Brāhmaṇas) Lit.

  N. of the second and most important part of the Mīmāṃsā or third of the three great divisions of Hindū philosophy (called Vedânta either as teaching the ultimate scope of the Veda or simply as explained in the Upanishads which come at the end of the Veda ; this system , although belonging to the Mīmāṃsā ( q.v. ) and sometimes called Uttara-mīmāṃsā , " examination of the later portion or [ jñāna-kāṇḍa ] ( q.v. ) of the Veda " , is really the one sole orthodox exponent of the pantheistic creed of the Hindūs of the present day - a creed which underlies all the polytheism and multiform mythology of the people ; its chief doctrine ( as expounded by Śaṃkara ) is that of Advaita i.e. that nothing really exists but the One Self or Soul of the Universe called Brahman ( neut. ) or Paramâtman , and that the Jīvâtman or individual human soul and indeed all the phenomena of nature are really identical with the Paramâtman , and that their existence is only the result of Ajñāna ( otherwise called Avidyā ) or an assumed ignorance on the part of that one universal Soul which is described as both Creator and Creation ; Actor and Act ; Existence , Knowledge and Joy , and as devoid of the three qualities ( see [ guṇa ] ) ; the liberation of the human soul , its deliverance from transmigrations , and re-union with the Paramâtman , with which it is really identified , is only to be effected by a removal of that ignorance through a proper understanding of the Vedânta ; this system is also called Brahma-mīmāṃsā and Śārīrakamīmāṃsā , " inquiring into Spirit or embodied Spirit " ; the founder of the school is said to have been Vyāsa , also called Bādarāyaṇa , and its most eminent teacher was Śaṃkarâcārya) Lit.
