The Rigveda (from Sanskrit ṛc, “praise” and veda, “knowledge”) is an ancient Indian collection of Vedic Sanskrit hymns. It is one of the four foundational and canonical sacred Hindu texts known as the Vedas, and is considered the oldest known Vedic Sanskrit text.
The term “Veda” literally means “knowledge” or “wisdom.” These texts are considered Shruti (that which is heard or revealed), meaning they are believed to be of divine origin, revealed to ancient sages (rishis) through intense meditation and spiritual insight. They are the ultimate authority in Hindu tradition.
Sanatan Dharma, often referred to as Hinduism, has a vast and profound collection of sacred texts that form the bedrock of its philosophy, rituals, and practices. These texts are broadly categorized into two main groups: Shruti (that which is heard/revealed) and Smriti (that which is remembered/interpreted).
