Santom.......Adnyani" [Ved, Upveda Aur Vedangonka Lakshyarth]

In the World's store of literature, the Vaidic Literature Shines like the Sun. When the whole World was roaming in the dark, the Vaidic knowledge written by Sages, remained safe, generation after generation, in the Oral form, and recited by hearing only. Then, that divine knowledge became the part of 'ATMA', in the form of religion, and refinement. Then, it took the form of Literature, which we call as VEDAS. The Vedas were created in four forms, and were named - (1) RIGVEDA, (2) YAJURVEDA (3) SAMVEDA (4) ATHARVA VEDA. Then the supplementary literature of Vedas was created. After that only, the 'UPVEDA' and other parts of Veda, were created. In the end, 'VEDANG' was created, in which, Education, Grammar, Nirukta, Metres, Kalp, and Astrology, and 'UPANG' of Veda (History, Puran, Darshan, Dharma - Shastra, and Tantra) were framed. Please listen to how the supplementary literature was created. AYURVEDA was the supplementary literature of Rigveda. DHANURVEDA, that of Yajurveda; 'GANDHARV VEDA' of Samveda; and 'ARTHA - SHASTRA' (Economics) was the supplementary of Atharva Veda. The 'Charanvyuha' gives the proof of this, as follows:- "Tantra .......... Skandhova"

MEANING:- The Vedas have 4 (four) UPVEDAS. AYURVEDA, that of Rigveda, DHANURVEDA of Yajurveda, GANDHARVA - VEDA of Samveda; and ARTHA-SHASTRA that of Atharva-Veda.

The literature produced regarding Vedas, and their sub-parts, is so large in size, and quantity, and gigantic, that the literature of the whole World, is very short, crippled, and dis-interesting, in comparison to it. This can be guessed, only from the description, that only Rigveda consists of 10 parts, known as 'MANDAL', and each Mandal has a large number of SUKTAS, as follows:- In the first one, - 191 in (2) 43 (3) 62 (4) 58 (5) 87 (6) 75 (7) 104 (8) 103 (9) 114 (10) 191. The total number of SUKTAS is 2028. The same thing applies to other Vedas. Yajur-Veda is divided into 2 parts. The first part is 'Shukla Yajurveda' and second part is 'Krushna Yajurveda'.

The Atharva Veda is divided into nine (9) parts:- (1)"Paiplad" (2) "Shounkiya" ------------------- (9) "Charan Vidhya". After that, this also is further divided into two (2) parts:- "Auranya" and "Kandikeya". Again, "Kandikeya" is also divided into 5 parts, as follows:- (1) Aapstambha Bodhayan --------------- (4) Audheya Aadi |
This description of Vedas is so short, that it is equivalent to saying that it is only one instant ("Pal" - 24 seconds), as per Statistics. Though, the body of Vedas has diminished, from time to time, still, it is many times larger, than the literature, in the World. If we take into consideration, the abridged edition of Vedas, by Veda VYAS, in end of DWAPAR age, and if we calculate one chant, at the rate of one Paisa, the total amount will be so much, that today, the whole of Europe, can be purchased by that. The writing of only VED VYAS,
is as gigantic as the Indian Ocean, whose depth is not judged by anybody, till this day. That portion of the World, which separated from it, became the Moon in the Sky, and some part is occupied by the SEA. Thus, Veda, in the form of Moon, is shining in the Sky, even today.

Vishwa Sahityame Veda

In order to prove the greatness of Hindu Vaidic Literature, in the vast literature of the World, I must quote the truth of Astronomy, which is as follows:-
"Our SUN is one ordinary star. It is one among the millions and billions of stars present in our Milky way, or 'Galaxy', and it is only, 1500 Lakhs Kilometres away, and hence, they appear like Stars, to us. We can view only 6000 stars, and that too, through the telescope. Amongst them, 'Siriyas' or 'LUBDHAK' (Lubdhak) star (which is known as 'DOG STAR' also), is the brightest, and it is one Light - year away. The rays of Light, which travel 3 00 000 Km. per second, reach 10 000 000 000 000 Kilo-metres, in one year. 'Siriyas' has one co-star, which is known as 'Siriyas-B', which can be seen, without the telescope also. Next to this, the bright star in the Sky, is CANOPUS (Canopus), which helps the Navigators of the World, and guides the Space Vehicles also.


The star, nearest to us, is "Alpha Settory", (which is only four (4) Light-years away), and is the third bright star. The fourth bright star, is the one, whose serial number is 19, amongst the bright stars. Its temperature is 10,000 Degrees Celsius. Its size is 2 5 times that of our SUN.

So, if we consider, that the World's literature, is our Sun, then, our Vedas would be as follows:- RIGVEDA is 'LUBDHAK', Yajurveda is 'CANOPUS', Sam Veda is "Alpha Settory", and ATHARVA. is 'DEBEN' (Deben). In order to compare the greatness of Vedas, against the World Literature, this is the only example with me, because the Vedas are shining with their luster, even today.

In order to describe the greatness of ATHARVA, in comparison to Veda-trio, I will have to say as follows:- If, DEBEN, existing in the Galaxy, slides towards us, its distance from us, would be 1000 Light-Years. This only is the distance, between the intelligence of the authors of the Wolrld Literature, and the knowledge of our VEDAS.

The Aim of Vaidic Volumes (Vaidic Granthonka Lakshya)
----------------------------------------------------------------------

The importance of Vedas, in Vaidic Literature, is judged properly by the rare Scholar, upto this day. Even those who have spent the whole life, in learning and teaching Vedas, have not been able to judge the importance of Vedas. How can the transitory one, judge, the long-lasting? How can the Heavenly Light, be borne, by the Worldly head? Can one ant cross the Sea? Can one insect cross the Himalaya? Before writing the Epic 'Raghuvansh', Mahakavi KALIDAS, the crown of the poets, was forced to say:- "Kwa ---- Sakaram" (Raghuvansh - 1 - 2).
MEANING:- How great is 'Suryavansh', and how short is my wisdom?
I am wishing to cross the difficult Sea, with the help of the raft, due to delusion. "Mandaha -------- Wamanaha" / (RAGHU. 1 - 3).

Though I am dull, I am wishing the success of being a poet, and hence, I would be definitely ridiculed, just as the greedy dwarf, spreads his hand, towards the fruit, which can only be obtained by a tall man.

Even then, Kalidas described the kings of RAGHUVANSHYA. I am also dull, but I have dared to describe the greatness of one part of Vedas. Hence, the intellectuals, should pardon my mistakes.

Now, I will state the aim of every Veda, in a single line, which is only the curiosity of my poem. I have understood Vaidic Literature so much only.

Aim of Rigveda
-------------------

"Yaha ----------Tada" / MEANING:- The Scholars state that SWATMADEV gives the highest pleasure. We, desirous of Salvation, pray to the ATMADEV. (abandoning all the worldly pleasures). If one does not satisfy that Supreme Power, by this sacrifice, (in which there is supremacy of RUCHA), what purpose of MUMUKSHU, has been fulfilled? Only, RUCHAS, discussinhg 'Self-realisation' are useful for mumukshu.

Object of YAJURVEDA
------------------------------

"Lohita ---------- Kim" / MEANING:- If the mumukshu has not destroyed 'AJA-MAYA', which holds Rajas, Satva, and Tam gunas, (and accordingly, producing the World, Light, and Protection), in the Sacrifice, what salvation will he get, by performing the deeds, according to the Chants of YAJURVEDA?.

Though I am dull, I am wishing the success of being a poet, and hence, I would be definitely ridiculed, just as the greedy dwarf, spreads his hand, towards the fruit, which can only be obtained by a tall man.

Even then, Kalidas described the kings of RAGHUVANSHYA. I am also dull, but I have dared to describe the greatness of one part of Vedas. Hence, the intellectuals, should pardon my mistakes.

Now, I will state the aim of every Veda, in a single line, which is only the curiosity of my poem. I have understood Vaidic Literature so much only.

Aim of Rigveda
-------------------

"Yaha ----------Tada" / MEANING:- The Scholars state that SWATMADEV gives the highest pleasure. We, desirous of Salvation, pray to the ATMADEV. (abandoning all the worldly pleasures). If one does not satisfy that Supreme Power, by this sacrifice, (in which there is supremacy of RUCHA), what purpose of MUMUKSHU, has been fulfilled? Only, RUCHAS, discussinhg 'Self-realisation' are useful for mumukshu.

Object of YAJURVEDA
------------------------------

"Lohita ---------- Kim" / MEANING:- If the mumukshu has not destroyed 'AJA-MAYA', which holds Rajas, Satva, and Tam gunas, (and accordingly, producing the World, Light, and Protection), in the Sacrifice, what salvation will he get, by performing the deeds, according to the Chants of YAJURVEDA?.

Aim of Sam-Veda
----------------------

"Chhandogye ---------- Tada" / MEANING:- If the mumukshu did not sing the song of BRAMHA, with lovable tongue, as described in "Chhandogye Upanishada’, what will he gain, by the deeds of Sam-veda? (They should sing only ‘Atmavishayak’ SAM., and abandon the ‘Anatmavishayak Sam’.

At present, the SAM, without BRAMHA, is considered the part of ‘Kamshastra’. The film songs is the sapient (very clear) example. The ‘POP MUSIC’ is also KAM SHASTRA.

Aim of ATHARVA-VEDA
---------------------------------

"Atharvani ---------- Tathyarthavatrihi" / MEANING:- If ‘Atharvani Bramhavidhya’ stated by Sage PIPPALAD, the son of Maharshi DADHICHEE, has not created any splendour in the heart of mumukshu, what aim will he achieve, by experimenting "Anatmavishayak Atharvan"?.
Now the aims of 2 or 3 UPVEDA also, should be considered, as they also are not less important, than Vedas. That also is the part of Vedas.

Aim of AYURVEDA
---------------------------

"Dnyanamrutam ---------- Nirarthakaha" / MEANING:- If one has not drunk the Nectar of Knowledge (Dnyanamrut) (which destroys old-age, death etc.), and could not attain immortality, and, in the end, had to face the death, then, (in such a miserable condition), what was the benefit, of studying AYURVEDA?

Aim of DHANURVEDA
------------------------------

"Pranavenaiva ---------- Nirarthakaha" / MEANING:- If, the mumukshu has mounted the arrow, in the form of knowledge, on the bow, in the form of PRANAV (Om Kar), and has not destroyed, the final object, ‘Bramharup’, then what was the benefit of learning DHANURVEDA?

(Kramashaha)

(Gatank Se Aage)

Aim of gandharva VEDA
--------------------------------------

"Atma ---------- Kimu" / MEANING:- If one does not praise the Supreme Soul Bramha, with the sweet songs, in Gandharva tunes, then

what is the benefit of wasting time, in studying the (Soul-less) Gandharva Veda?.

Aim of ARTHA VEDA (ECONOMICS)
-------------------------------------------------

"Anarthaha ---------- Nirarthakam" / MEANING:- All the Worldly substances, (Dharma, Artha, and Kam), are only the misfortune (creating grief), while, Salvation (Knowledge of BRAMHA), is the subtle truth. If, one does not get that Paramarth, the popular ECONOMICS is useless.
After Vedas, and Upvedas, it will be proper, to think about VEDANG. In the Aryan Culture, the aimless literature, is not honoured. The literature should always have some aim. It is stated ------- "Keval ------- Chahiye"./ One SHRUTI is famous. – "Shiksha ------ Vinirnayaha". MEANING:- Knowledge, KALP, Grammar, Nirukta, Metres, and Astrology are 6 Vedang. Let us discuss them.

Aim of Knowledge (Shiksha)
-----------------------------------

"Shuddho ---------- Kimu" / MEANING:- If one absorbs the secret knowledge which is only big advice (Mahavakyopadeshrupi), but does not become pure, abandoning the ties of the body (Dehabandhan), then what knowledge has he gained, from the Grammatical Knowledge of PANINI, which describes the Vowels, etc.?

Aim of KALPA - SUTRA
--------------------------------

"Kalpanam ---------- Kimarjitam" / MEANING:- The KALPA – SUTRA describes the KARMA, and UPASANA. But the prime KALP is the "Doubtless Spiritual Knowledge" (Nirvikalp Atmachaitanya). If one does not experience that, what has he gained, by studying Kalp Sutra consisting of ‘VIKALP’ and ‘SANKALP’?
"Kalpako --------- Nirarthakam" / The one, well versed with KALP, attains BRAMHA, with proper conception. If one does not obtain that saviour Kalp, then that study of Kalp-Sutra, is usless.

Aim of Grammar
---------------------

"Padvyu ---------- Kim" / MEANING:- It is necessary, to get the knowledge of World Occupation, in Grammar, for understanding the meaning of the Compound Sentence. If one does not understand the meaning of those sentences, the attempt to learn Grammar, is fruit-less.
"Yenedam ---------- Kim" / MEANING:- If, one does not understand, the main principle, SUPREME SOUL, who has created the different shapes of this visible World, then what aim of the mumukshu, will be fulfilled by GRAMMAR?
"Yatastu ----------- Kim" / MEANING:- If the worthless NAYA (illusion), and the beneficial (Secret Soul), cannot be understood, by the mumukshu, on studying Grammar, what is the use of that?

Aim of Nirukta
-------------------

"Niruktam ---------- Muktibhihi" / MEANING:- The emblem (Swarupsthiti) of Spiritual Soul (Chinmatra Roop), is known as ‘NIRUKTA’, because that state cannot be described, in words. The advice of Spiritual Soul, is also known as NIRUKTA, because the Speech returns from there, or, it is unable, to describe that state, and has to be silent, on reaching that state. If the mumukshu does not understand, these both kinds of NIRUKTA, what is the benefit of principles (stated by YASK), in NIRUKTA?

Aim of METRES (Chhand)
---------------------------------

"Tachhando ---------- Prayojanam" / MEANING:- The people free from bondage of Worldly Life, reach the self-whiled state, with natural equality, and behave naturally (like the ignorant children). (This state offers them, the highest pleasure of freedom). If the mumukshu, does not understand that (Chhand) Meetre, which teaches the ‘SELF – WILL’, then what is the benefit of styding the ‘METRES’ (like ‘Arya’ etc., based on ‘GANA’ (Gana) like – ‘Yagana, Ragana, Sagana, Tagana, Jagana, Magana, Nagana?

Aim of Astrology
---------------------------

"Jyotisha ---------- Krutam" / MEANING:- The Sun, Moon, Agni, Speech etc. gain their brilliance, by the favour of Self – illuminated Soul. If Astrology,

does not understand that holy flame of Soul, and describes only the customary Planets, what will the Mumukshu gain, from this sort of Astrology?

The Retrospect
-------------------

Since the Ancient Period, Vaidic Literature has faced many storms, which destroy the Cultures, from the root. Especially, in the Indian Culture, which has been the target of the slaughter, of the aggressors, the Vaidic Literature is protected, as it was, even today. Vaidic Literature consists of Veda, Upveda, Vedang, Ramayan, Mahabharat, Puran, Dharma – Shastra, Tantra – Shastra, Bramhan Granth, Darshan Shastra, literature of different Sects, - Jain, Bauddha, Charwak, Stotra Sahitya of Vedant Serial, Bhgwat, Vaishnav Mat, Shaiva, Shakta, Lingayat, Yoga, Ganpatya, Saur, Upanishad, Smruti, Samhita, Chousath – Kala (Chousath Kala), and Maha-Vidya. The barbarous Muslims burnt the vast famous libraries of Nalanda, and Takshashila, so that their Begums can get hot water, in their bath-rooms, for centuries (using the paper of those books). But, still, the Vaidic Literature is safe. Vedas were destroyed a number of times, research took place, were established, and promulgated. According to one story of Matsya-Puran, it is said, that the reproduction of Vedas, by VED VYAS, took place, in the end of DWAPAR, and not earlier. It is no wonder, that the renovation of Vedas, took place, a number of times, during the long period of Satya-Yug.

Apart from the story of ‘MATSYA-AVATAR’, in Puran, there is one story in the ‘Shalya Parva’ of Mahabharat, that once, when the Sages resided out of the country, for 12 years, due to the drought, and forgot the Vedas, ‘Saraswak Rishi’, the son of DADHICHEE and SARASWATI, taught again the Vedas, even to the Sages, much older than him. Then, ‘Dattatreya’ had renovated Vedas. What is the necessity of going so far? Only 500 years before, SAYANACHARYA had carried out the work of renovation. After SAYANACHARYA, people were

only knowing the name of Vedas, and in the South, apart from reciting to some extent, the people had forgotten the true learning of Vedas.

Then again, 100 years before, Swami DAYANANDA renovated Vedas. In my opinion, Dayanand had done the same work, as was done by VED VYAS.

All this work was done, because Vaidic Literature had some aim. One of its aim, was self – realisation, and attaining the Supreme Power, Up-lift of Life, and establishment of common – welfare. Vedas are the symbol of Knowledge, - the stair-case of reaching the goal. The knowledge, which was vogue, for centuries in the form of ‘SHRUTI’, how the same ‘Bramhadnyan’ became fantastic in the form of Vedas, is stated in the story of MATSYA PURAN. The origin of Vedas, in the beginning of the World, is stated there, as follows:-

"Tapaschachar ----------- Smrutaha | |" (Matsya Aa-3, Shlo. 2 – 4)
The four Vedas, were created, from 4 months of BRAMHA (Bramha).

CONCLUSION

The Vedas are the lamps, from which, the Mankind has received light, from age to age. I (the original writer) have correctly written, in my first volume of Poetry, ‘Satvanti Ka Swarg’ as follows:-

"Ved ---------- Andha Kup" / // 330 // (330)
"Ved ---------- Ek Granth" / // 1001 // (1001)

Santom.......Adnyani" [Ved, Upveda Aur Vedangonka Lakshyarth]

In the World's store of literature, the Vaidic Literature Shines like the Sun. When the whole World was roaming in the dark, the Vaidic knowledge written by Sages, remained safe, generation after generation, in the Oral form, and recited by hearing only. Then, that divine knowledge became the part of 'ATMA', in the form of religion, and refinement. Then, it took the form of Literature, which we call as VEDAS. The Vedas were created in four forms, and were named - (1) RIGVEDA, (2) YAJURVEDA (3) SAMVEDA (4) ATHARVA VEDA. Then the supplementary literature of Vedas was created. After that only, the 'UPVEDA' and other parts of Veda, were created. In the end, 'VEDANG' was created, in which, Education, Grammar, Nirukta, Metres, Kalp, and Astrology, and 'UPANG' of Veda (History, Puran, Darshan, Dharma - Shastra, and Tantra) were framed. Please listen to how the supplementary literature was created. AYURVEDA was the supplementary literature of Rigveda. DHANURVEDA, that of Yajurveda; 'GANDHARV VEDA' of Samveda; and 'ARTHA - SHASTRA' (Economics) was the supplementary of Atharva Veda. The 'Charanvyuha' gives the proof of this, as follows:- "Tantra .......... Skandhova"

MEANING:- The Vedas have 4 (four) UPVEDAS. AYURVEDA, that of Rigveda, DHANURVEDA of Yajurveda, GANDHARVA - VEDA of Samveda; and ARTHA-SHASTRA that of Atharva-Veda.

The literature produced regarding Vedas, and their sub-parts, is so large in size, and quantity, and gigantic, that the literature of the whole World, is very short, crippled, and dis-interesting, in comparison to it. This can be guessed, only from the description, that only Rigveda consists of 10 parts, known as 'MANDAL', and each Mandal has a large number of SUKTAS, as follows:- In the first one, - 191 in (2) 43 (3) 62 (4) 58 (5) 87 (6) 75 (7) 104 (8) 103 (9) 114 (10) 191. The total number of SUKTAS is 2028. The same thing applies to other Vedas. Yajur-Veda is divided into 2 parts. The first part is 'Shukla Yajurveda' and second part is 'Krushna Yajurveda'.

The Atharva Veda is divided into nine (9) parts:- (1)"Paiplad" (2) "Shounkiya" ------------------- (9) "Charan Vidhya". After that, this also is further divided into two (2) parts:- "Auranya" and "Kandikeya". Again, "Kandikeya" is also divided into 5 parts, as follows:- (1) Aapstambha Bodhayan --------------- (4) Audheya Aadi |
This description of Vedas is so short, that it is equivalent to saying that it is only one instant ("Pal" - 24 seconds), as per Statistics. Though, the body of Vedas has diminished, from time to time, still, it is many times larger, than the literature, in the World. If we take into consideration, the abridged edition of Vedas, by Veda VYAS, in end of DWAPAR age, and if we calculate one chant, at the rate of one Paisa, the total amount will be so much, that today, the whole of Europe, can be purchased by that. The writing of only VED VYAS,
is as gigantic as the Indian Ocean, whose depth is not judged by anybody, till this day. That portion of the World, which separated from it, became the Moon in the Sky, and some part is occupied by the SEA. Thus, Veda, in the form of Moon, is shining in the Sky, even today.

Vishwa Sahityame Veda

In order to prove the greatness of Hindu Vaidic Literature, in the vast literature of the World, I must quote the truth of Astronomy, which is as follows:-
"Our SUN is one ordinary star. It is one among the millions and billions of stars present in our Milky way, or 'Galaxy', and it is only, 1500 Lakhs Kilometres away, and hence, they appear like Stars, to us. We can view only 6000 stars, and that too, through the telescope. Amongst them, 'Siriyas' or 'LUBDHAK' (Lubdhak) star (which is known as 'DOG STAR' also), is the brightest, and it is one Light - year away. The rays of Light, which travel 3 00 000 Km. per second, reach 10 000 000 000 000 Kilo-metres, in one year. 'Siriyas' has one co-star, which is known as 'Siriyas-B', which can be seen, without the telescope also. Next to this, the bright star in the Sky, is CANOPUS (Canopus), which helps the Navigators of the World, and guides the Space Vehicles also.


The star, nearest to us, is "Alpha Settory", (which is only four (4) Light-years away), and is the third bright star. The fourth bright star, is the one, whose serial number is 19, amongst the bright stars. Its temperature is 10,000 Degrees Celsius. Its size is 2 5 times that of our SUN.

So, if we consider, that the World's literature, is our Sun, then, our Vedas would be as follows:- RIGVEDA is 'LUBDHAK', Yajurveda is 'CANOPUS', Sam Veda is "Alpha Settory", and ATHARVA. is 'DEBEN' (Deben). In order to compare the greatness of Vedas, against the World Literature, this is the only example with me, because the Vedas are shining with their luster, even today.

In order to describe the greatness of ATHARVA, in comparison to Veda-trio, I will have to say as follows:- If, DEBEN, existing in the Galaxy, slides towards us, its distance from us, would be 1000 Light-Years. This only is the distance, between the intelligence of the authors of the Wolrld Literature, and the knowledge of our VEDAS.

The Aim of Vaidic Volumes (Vaidic Granthonka Lakshya)
----------------------------------------------------------------------

The importance of Vedas, in Vaidic Literature, is judged properly by the rare Scholar, upto this day. Even those who have spent the whole life, in learning and teaching Vedas, have not been able to judge the importance of Vedas. How can the transitory one, judge, the long-lasting? How can the Heavenly Light, be borne, by the Worldly head? Can one ant cross the Sea? Can one insect cross the Himalaya? Before writing the Epic 'Raghuvansh', Mahakavi KALIDAS, the crown of the poets, was forced to say:- "Kwa ---- Sakaram" (Raghuvansh - 1 - 2).
MEANING:- How great is 'Suryavansh', and how short is my wisdom?
I am wishing to cross the difficult Sea, with the help of the raft, due to delusion. "Mandaha -------- Wamanaha" / (RAGHU. 1 - 3).

Though I am dull, I am wishing the success of being a poet, and hence, I would be definitely ridiculed, just as the greedy dwarf, spreads his hand, towards the fruit, which can only be obtained by a tall man.

Even then, Kalidas described the kings of RAGHUVANSHYA. I am also dull, but I have dared to describe the greatness of one part of Vedas. Hence, the intellectuals, should pardon my mistakes.

Now, I will state the aim of every Veda, in a single line, which is only the curiosity of my poem. I have understood Vaidic Literature so much only.

Aim of Rigveda
-------------------

"Yaha ----------Tada" / MEANING:- The Scholars state that SWATMADEV gives the highest pleasure. We, desirous of Salvation, pray to the ATMADEV. (abandoning all the worldly pleasures). If one does not satisfy that Supreme Power, by this sacrifice, (in which there is supremacy of RUCHA), what purpose of MUMUKSHU, has been fulfilled? Only, RUCHAS, discussinhg 'Self-realisation' are useful for mumukshu.

Object of YAJURVEDA
------------------------------

"Lohita ---------- Kim" / MEANING:- If the mumukshu has not destroyed 'AJA-MAYA', which holds Rajas, Satva, and Tam gunas, (and accordingly, producing the World, Light, and Protection), in the Sacrifice, what salvation will he get, by performing the deeds, according to the Chants of YAJURVEDA?.

Though I am dull, I am wishing the success of being a poet, and hence, I would be definitely ridiculed, just as the greedy dwarf, spreads his hand, towards the fruit, which can only be obtained by a tall man.

Even then, Kalidas described the kings of RAGHUVANSHYA. I am also dull, but I have dared to describe the greatness of one part of Vedas. Hence, the intellectuals, should pardon my mistakes.

Now, I will state the aim of every Veda, in a single line, which is only the curiosity of my poem. I have understood Vaidic Literature so much only.

Aim of Rigveda
-------------------

"Yaha ----------Tada" / MEANING:- The Scholars state that SWATMADEV gives the highest pleasure. We, desirous of Salvation, pray to the ATMADEV. (abandoning all the worldly pleasures). If one does not satisfy that Supreme Power, by this sacrifice, (in which there is supremacy of RUCHA), what purpose of MUMUKSHU, has been fulfilled?

------------------------------

"Lohita ---------- Kim" / MEANING:- If the mumukshu has not destroyed 'AJA-MAYA', which holds Rajas, Satva, and Tam gunas, (and accordingly, producing the World, Light, and Protection), in the Sacrifice, what salvation will he get, by performing the deeds, according to the Chants of YAJURVEDA?.

Aim of Sam-Veda
----------------------

"Chhandogye ---------- Tada" / MEANING:- If the mumukshu did not sing the song of BRAMHA, with lovable tongue, as described in "Chhandogye Upanishada’, what will he gain, by the deeds of Sam-veda? (They should sing only ‘Atmavishayak’ SAM., and abandon the ‘Anatmavishayak Sam’.

At present, the SAM, without BRAMHA, is considered the part of ‘Kamshastra’. The film songs is the sapient (very clear) example. The ‘POP MUSIC’ is also KAM SHASTRA.

Aim of ATHARVA-VEDA
---------------------------------

"Atharvani ---------- Tathyarthavatrihi" / MEANING:- If ‘Atharvani Bramhavidhya’ stated by Sage PIPPALAD, the son of Maharshi DADHICHEE, has not created any splendour in the heart of mumukshu, what aim will he achieve, by experimenting "Anatmavishayak Atharvan"?.
Now the aims of 2 or 3 UPVEDA also, should be considered, as they also are not less important, than Vedas. That also is the part of Vedas.

Aim of AYURVEDA
---------------------------

"Dnyanamrutam ---------- Nirarthakaha" / MEANING:- If one has not drunk the Nectar of Knowledge (Dnyanamrut) (which destroys old-age, death etc.), and could not attain immortality, and, in the end, had to face the death, then, (in such a miserable condition), what was the benefit, of studying AYURVEDA?

Aim of DHANURVEDA
------------------------------

"Pranavenaiva ---------- Nirarthakaha" / MEANING:- If, the mumukshu has mounted the arrow, in the form of knowledge, on the bow, in the form of PRANAV (Om Kar), and has not destroyed, the final object, ‘Bramharup’, then what was the benefit of learning DHANURVEDA?

(Kramashaha)

(Gatank Se Aage)

Aim of gandharva VEDA
--------------------------------------

"Atma ---------- Kimu" / MEANING:- If one does not praise the Supreme Soul Bramha, with the sweet songs, in Gandharva tunes, then

what is the benefit of wasting time, in studying the (Soul-less) Gandharva Veda?.

Aim of ARTHA VEDA (ECONOMICS)
-------------------------------------------------

"Anarthaha ---------- Nirarthakam" / MEANING:- All the Worldly substances, (Dharma, Artha, and Kam), are only the misfortune (creating grief), while, Salvation (Knowledge of BRAMHA), is the subtle truth. If, one does not get that Paramarth, the popular ECONOMICS is useless.
After Vedas, and Upvedas, it will be proper, to think about VEDANG. In the Aryan Culture, the aimless literature, is not honoured. The literature should always have some aim. It is stated ------- "Keval ------- Chahiye"./ One SHRUTI is famous. – "Shiksha ------ Vinirnayaha". MEANING:- Knowledge, KALP, Grammar, Nirukta, Metres, and Astrology are 6 Vedang. Let us discuss them.

Aim of Knowledge (Shiksha)
-----------------------------------

"Shuddho ---------- Kimu" / MEANING:- If one absorbs the secret knowledge which is only big advice (Mahavakyopadeshrupi), but does not become pure, abandoning the ties of the body (Dehabandhan), then what knowledge has he gained, from the Grammatical Knowledge of PANINI, which describes the Vowels, etc.?

Aim of KALPA - SUTRA
--------------------------------

"Kalpanam ---------- Kimarjitam" / MEANING:- The KALPA – SUTRA describes the KARMA, and UPASANA. But the prime KALP is the "Doubtless Spiritual Knowledge" (Nirvikalp Atmachaitanya). If one does not experience that, what has he gained, by studying Kalp Sutra consisting of ‘VIKALP’ and ‘SANKALP’?
"Kalpako --------- Nirarthakam" / The one, well versed with KALP, attains BRAMHA, with proper conception. If one does not obtain that saviour Kalp, then that study of Kalp-Sutra, is usless.

Aim of Grammar
---------------------

"Padvyu ---------- Kim" / MEANING:- It is necessary, to get the knowledge of World Occupation, in Grammar, for understanding the meaning of the Compound Sentence. If one does not understand the meaning of those sentences, the attempt to learn Grammar, is fruit-less.
"Yenedam ---------- Kim" / MEANING:- If, one does not understand, the main principle, SUPREME SOUL, who has created the different shapes of this visible World, then what aim of the mumukshu, will be fulfilled by GRAMMAR?
"Yatastu ----------- Kim" / MEANING:- If the worthless NAYA (illusion), and the beneficial (Secret Soul), cannot be understood, by the mumukshu, on studying Grammar, what is the use of that?

Aim of Nirukta
-------------------

"Niruktam ---------- Muktibhihi" / MEANING:- The emblem (Swarupsthiti) of Spiritual Soul (Chinmatra Roop), is known as ‘NIRUKTA’, because that state cannot be described, in words. The advice of Spiritual Soul, is also known as NIRUKTA, because the Speech returns from there, or, it is unable, to describe that state, and has to be silent, on reaching that state. If the mumukshu does not understand, these both kinds of NIRUKTA, what is the benefit of principles (stated by YASK), in NIRUKTA?

Aim of METRES (Chhand)
---------------------------------

"Tachhando ---------- Prayojanam" / MEANING:- The people free from bondage of Worldly Life, reach the self-whiled state, with natural equality, and behave naturally (like the ignorant children). (This state offers them, the highest pleasure of freedom). If the mumukshu, does not understand that (Chhand) Meetre, which teaches the ‘SELF – WILL’, then what is the benefit of styding the ‘METRES’ (like ‘Arya’ etc., based on ‘GANA’ (Gana) like – ‘Yagana, Ragana, Sagana, Tagana, Jagana, Magana, Nagana?

Aim of Astrology
---------------------------

"Jyotisha ---------- Krutam" / MEANING:- The Sun, Moon, Agni, Speech etc. gain their brilliance, by the favour of Self – illuminated Soul. If Astrology,

does not understand that holy flame of Soul, and describes only the customary Planets, what will the Mumukshu gain, from this sort of Astrology?

The Retrospect
-------------------

Since the Ancient Period, Vaidic Literature has faced many storms, which destroy the Cultures, from the root. Especially, in the Indian Culture, which has been the target of the slaughter, of the aggressors, the Vaidic Literature is protected, as it was, even today. Vaidic Literature consists of Veda, Upveda, Vedang, Ramayan, Mahabharat, Puran, Dharma – Shastra, Tantra – Shastra, Bramhan Granth, Darshan Shastra, literature of different Sects, - Jain, Bauddha, Charwak, Stotra Sahitya of Vedant Serial, Bhgwat, Vaishnav Mat, Shaiva, Shakta, Lingayat, Yoga, Ganpatya, Saur, Upanishad, Smruti, Samhita, Chousath – Kala (Chousath Kala), and Maha-Vidya. The barbarous Muslims burnt the vast famous libraries of Nalanda, and Takshashila, so that their Begums can get hot water, in their bath-rooms, for centuries (using the paper of those books). But, still, the Vaidic Literature is safe. Vedas were destroyed a number of times, research took place, were established, and promulgated. According to one story of Matsya-Puran, it is said, that the reproduction of Vedas, by VED VYAS, took place, in the end of DWAPAR, and not earlier. It is no wonder, that the renovation of Vedas, took place, a number of times, during the long period of Satya-Yug.

Apart from the story of ‘MATSYA-AVATAR’, in Puran, there is one story in the ‘Shalya Parva’ of Mahabharat, that once, when the Sages resided out of the country, for 12 years, due to the drought, and forgot the Vedas, ‘Saraswak Rishi’, the son of DADHICHEE and SARASWATI, taught again the Vedas, even to the Sages, much older than him. Then, ‘Dattatreya’ had renovated Vedas. What is the necessity of going so far? Only 500 years before, SAYANACHARYA had carried out the work of renovation. After SAYANACHARYA, people were

only knowing the name of Vedas, and in the South, apart from reciting to some extent, the people had forgotten the true learning of Vedas.

Then again, 100 years before, Swami DAYANANDA renovated Vedas. In my opinion, Dayanand had done the same work, as was done by VED VYAS.

All this work was done, because Vaidic Literature had some aim. One of its aim, was self – realisation, and attaining the Supreme Power, Up-lift of Life, and establishment of common – welfare. Vedas are the symbol of Knowledge, - the stair-case of reaching the goal. The knowledge, which was vogue, for centuries in the form of ‘SHRUTI’, how the same ‘Bramhadnyan’ became fantastic in the form of Vedas, is stated in the story of MATSYA PURAN. The origin of Vedas, in the beginning of the World, is stated there, as follows:-

"Tapaschachar ----------- Smrutaha | |" (Matsya Aa-3, Shlo. 2 – 4)
The four Vedas, were created, from 4 months of BRAMHA (Bramha).

CONCLUSION

The Vedas are the lamps, from which, the Mankind has received light, from age to age. I (the original writer) have correctly written, in my first volume of Poetry, ‘Satvanti Ka Swarg’ as follows:-

"Ved ---------- Andha Kup" / // 330 // (330)
"Ved ---------- Ek Granth" / // 1001 // (1001)
