Vedas

Panchamukhi Shikshana – The five faces of education

vedas

VEDAS represent the pinnacle of Sanskrit literary merit. The matter contained therein is the manifestation of the lofty thought perceived through the inner eye of venerated sages of ancient India.

The four Vedas namely Rigveda, Yajurveda, Samaveda, and Atharvaveda, the eighteen Puranas, Upanishads, which are considered to be the cream of Vedas, the Ramayana, and the Mahabharata, which were considered to be historical texts by our ancestors.

Under the broad umbrella of Vedas come, the Bhagavad Geetha which in spite of being included in the Mahabharata justifies individualistic study, the Darshanas namely Nyaya, Vysheshika, Saankhya, Yoga, Poorva Meemamsa, and Uttara Meemamsa, Jainagamas, Buddhist Tripitikas, Grantha sahib of Guru Nanak and the simple words of guidance given by saints and seers.
