Pure knowledge is Veda. This is a simple definition of Veda.
Knowledge is quite essential for every creature and for every activity. To achieve success in our work, we find out various direct procedures, tactics and clues utilising the knowledge. Sometimes, we understood the advice of the experienced people and perform our work and get good results thereby. On some other occasions, we observe an incident or thoroughly examine some activities. Though we imagine that there is a valid reason for such incidents or for the making of such articles, we utilise the power of our intellect and devise many more methodologies, procedures and clues to get a better result, faster.
However, there are many things in the Universe, which are quite unreachable to the direct experience of our indriyas (i.e. the senses of perception) as also to the power of our intellect.
Veda is a huge heap of knowledge. It reveals the secrets of such unknown incidents and things. It enlightens us with the superhuman clues; quite essential for our life – both in the worldly and spiritual aspects.
What is the use of knowing Veda?
There are two vital benefits of Veda. They are (a) to fulfil the desires of the human race and (b) to prevent undesirable occurances and difficulties, i.e. to enable us to avoid the present problems as also the possible, sudden dangers.
