		<description>True Rishi, vedic texts have always been saying what they have said, but so called scientific minded people (who are actually popular science readers not actual field equation solvers nor have read vedic texts) come across it only after modern science discovers these facts. 

Vedas have always said that the entire universe is filled with vibrations represented by the symbol Om, now isnt it exactly the same thing which String theory is saying? So what is the issue here if vedic scholars say that the concept of string theory is nothing but the concept of Om? Vedas have always said that, In the beginning there was nothing and everything came out of nothing, and this is what even Big Bang theory and modern cosmology says isn&#039;t it? Nobody went and modified the vedic texts after these discoveries were made, did they? So who is arriving now after the climax? :)

If modern science in just last 5 centuries or so could invent and discover so much of technology and science, is it surprising if the vedic civilization lived for 5-6 millennium knew much more than us? And isnt it surprising to believe that human species who have had the same intelligent brain as today for over the past two million years or so started inventing and discovering things only recently?! 

Your comment actually prompted me to write two articles after a long time, thanks for that :)

		<description>One thing which is predominantly seen in the modern days Vedic scholars is that, whenever some concept of science is brought out by astronomer / cosmologist / physicst , like string theory, M Strings etc, immediately we see them coming up with something stating that this was already told in Vedas :)

When there was talks about Big Bang most vedics were talking about mahapralaya and Yugaas and quoted them as a comparison to Big Bang. Now when the concept of multiverse is catching up, they will definitely come up with some Sutra etc....

Ancient vedics might have or have done intense scientific research but modern vedics act as Police in a Bollywood movie, arrive after climax :)</description>

		<description>Hi,
I see that in vedas the black matter in the universe is also referred to Brahman. we have just started the investigation of what it is, but may be these are the channels or medium to communicate.  Could you shed some light on your findings...

Thank you,
Manikant</description>

		<description>Well, true that the vedic basis makes Hinduism neither a theistic nor an atheistic religion, its a culture where the existence of the supreme consciousness is acknowledged, but at the same time this supreme universal consciousness is NOT defined in the way abrahamic religions describe GOD, as some superhuman being who can punish and reward humans.
You can probably read these two articles
&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.hitxp.com/articles/veda/concept-god-hinduism/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Hindu Concept of God&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.hitxp.com/articles/veda/vedic-concept-god-idea/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Vedic Concept of God&lt;/a&gt;

Its not the mere chanting of the mantras, it is about trying to establish a connection of our consciousness with the supreme consciousness and it is said that establishing such connections successfully is what makes a normal human being a divine person - which is why again you will find so many holy persons, saints, sages etc who are worshipped equally with God -  those who were able to establish a connection with the supreme consciousness. This supreme consciousness is all pervading the universe, which is why hinduism treats every aspect of the universe as a living divine entity - animals, plants, planets, mountains, river, air, water etc.

As Mark Twain once said &quot;India has two million gods, and worships them all. In religion all other countries are paupers; India is the only millionaire.&quot;</description>

		<description>I am a Hindu(I guess, I was born in a Hindu family, which I found out is nothing , its actually Sanatana Dharma), I don&#039;t get it. Could you explain how are the scientific things in Vedas related to Ramayana, Mahabharata, Krishna, Bhajans, Puranas, all our rituals(hawans and all)? I mean from all I&#039;ve read about Vedas, they sound like agnostic or rather atheistic to me. Like pondering over what exists (or mediatation in other words). So how is it related to what we normally practice. In Vedas, is it anywhere mentioned that chanting &quot;Hare Krishna&quot; will solve your problems/bring you closer to GOD. And what is GOD according to Vedas? All the mantras, could they be just something like &quot;the law of attraction/subconscious mind&quot;? I have a lot more questions but I guess they&#039;ll be answered with these. Sorry for troubling you</description>

		<description>Well, vedas themselves say that which part of the vedic hymns were written by whom. Each part of the vedic texts has a human author. The greatness of the vedic texts is that large parts of it are also written by female authors like Gargi, Maitreyi, Ghosha etc.
The vedic knowledge which existed as independent texts was compiled into the four major vedas by veda vyasa.

Coming back to its apourusheya origin, its the knowledge in these texts that is referred to as apourusheya. The very term veda means knowledge. So while relativity for instance has Einstein as its author or discoverer (just like the authors of the vedic texts), the truth of relativity is apourusheya meaning Einstein didnt create relativity. He only discovered its existence. So did the vedic seers who composed the vedas.</description>

		<description>Excellent post, Gurudev! I really appreciate the vedic philosophy and would love to study further.
But it is hard to believe a comparison you have done to prove that Vedas are not authored. When you compare it to Einstein&#039;s relativity, it is a concept and hence was discovered. But Vedas are not just the concepts but they are the composition of words and hymns which cannot be there unless human intelligence is involved in composing this. How do one prove its apourusheyatva in that case?</description>

		<description>Very well said Blue Lotus, we need more researchers who look into the ancient Indian sciences and apply them to these days. We actually have a lot of them in this country but they just dont get the required media publicity.</description>
