Synopsis

The four Vedic Samhitas (Rig Veda, Sama Veda, Yajur Veda, and Atharva Veda) are Hindus' most revered writings. .The Vedic Samhitas are typically regarded as shruti, or divinely given. 'Shruti' literally means 'that which is heard,' therefore the composers 'heard' these passages, given to them from some holy source. The Samhitas themselves tell diverse stories about their mysterious origins. In this book we overview and examine the ritualistic context, content, and meaning of the four Samhitas.
