Veda: A Way of Life
The Veda (Sruti) is the most comprehensive doctrine on religion ever revealed to mankind that answers mans queries on the here and now and the hereafter.
Human objectives can be broadly grouped under 4 categories: desire (kama), material gain (artha), religious merits (dharma) and liberation (moksha). The Veda holds the key to fulfil all these aspirations. But the Veda simply reveals the Truth, never pressurising anyone to follow a particular path to self-discovery. Each person is free to choose his own path to discovery of the Self or God. The Veda acts as a means to the ultimate knowledge that is possible through direct perception.
VEDA: A Way of Life seeks to increase awareness amongst readers about this wonderful treasure of ancient wisdom. Study of this enlightening text will increase values of brotherhood, love and compassion. The Vedic or spiritual way of life promoted by the Veda was later advocated by Lord Krishna through the Bhagavad Gita.
