The Rig Veda
"The Vedas are the world’s oldest and most profound scriptures. This collection of ancient mantras, prayers, and hymns emerged fully formed out of the Indian mind and spirit during a period of immense antiquity. Its name ‘Veda’ comes from the Sanskrit root ‘vid’ which means ‘to know’ or ‘to see’. This is not the kind of knowledge obtained through the ordinary empirical process. Vedic knowledge is of a much higher order known as dristi, sruti, smriti; that which is seen, heard, and remembered, illuminations that arise as a direct revelation of truth in the soul. Owing to their sublime origins the Vedas represent a unique view into the nature of reality and offer an unparalleled knowledge of the cosmological principles that gave birth to our material universe. If we follow the history of the great scientific ideas from Copernicus to Newton to Einstein and Bohm and on to the modern theories of Hawking and Penrose, we will discover that most of these ideas, indeed far greater ones, were known and revealed by the Vedic Rishis many thousands of years ago. When these Vedic ideas are seen in their totality they reveal an irrefutable body of knowledge that not only exceeds our modern scientific understanding but exposes the fatal flaws in science’s reductive mental paradigm."
