Vedic Knowledge
“sanksipya caturo vedams caturdha vyabhajat prabhuh
vyasta-vedataya khyato veda-vyasa iti smrtah”
“sanksipya caturo vedams caturdha vyabhajat prabhuh
vyasta-vedataya khyato veda-vyasa iti smrtah”
“The prabhu (master, lord, guru) who is most intelligent then divided the Vedas into four. He therefore became known as Veda Vyasa.”
He codified the Veda, the compilation of which was initiated by Maharshi Angiras two millennia back, into four divisions ( 1131 Sakhas or Recensions divided into Rik (21 sakhas), Yajur(101 sakhas), Sama (1000 sakhas) and Atharva Veda (9 sakhas). For further re-organization and editing he entrusted the Books to his trusted disciples:
Rig Veda - Paila
Yajur Veda - Vaisampayana
Sama Veda - Jaimini
Atharva Veda - Sumantu
The four Upveds are Ayurved, Dhanurved, Gandharvved and Sthapathyaved.
There are six Angas or explanatory limbs, to the Vedas:
1.The Siksha of Maharshi Panini (Phonetics)
2.Vyakarana of Maharshi Panini (Sanskrit Grammar)
3.The Chhandas of Pingalacharya (Prosody metre)
4.The Nirukta of Yaska (Philosophy or etymology)
5.The Jyotisha of Garga (Astronomy and astrology)
6.The Kalpas (Srauta, Grihya, Dharma and Sulba)
Available vedic knowledge
