Answers to eternal questions about the meaning of life and the true destiny of man will always excite people, so the search for secret knowledge takes many minds. Someone in search of truth studies scientific treatises, someone is closer to religious texts, while others try to combine philosophical and religious trends, seeking the truth in synthesis. The latter are often interested in the study of Vedic knowledge, which are considered to be the oldest surviving to the present day.
Ancient Vedic Knowledge
The word "Veda" (apaurusa in Sanskrit) means "not created by man," that is, divine revelation. There are four sections of the Vedas in which you can find not only mantras and prayers, but also knowledge about medicine, architecture, history, music and the interrelationships of various natural processes. For example, it was the Vedas who spoke about the influence of color and musical notes on a person, modern medicine is gradually finding the strength to drop skeptical moods and finds evidence of the veracity of these statements. The study of Vedic knowledge is by no means a transition to another religious tradition or an introduction to the sect. This is more a philosophy, a way to look at the outside world differently, although someone will see here only beautiful fairy tales.
It is believed that the Vedas were recorded about 5 thousand years ago, although there are suggestions of their earlier creation. When the Vedas appeared faithfully, no one knows, for a very long time they were passed from mouth to mouth, and they were recorded much later. This was done by Vyasadeva, who not only documented the ancient knowledge, but also gave them a more convenient form of study. Unfortunately, all the Vedas have not survived to this day, researchers believe that today we can talk about the availability of about 5% of the whole mass of ancient knowledge.
Vedic knowledge of the Slavs
For a long time, the world community was convinced that the civilization to the Slavs came after the adoption of Christianity, and before that they differed little from the primitive people. But gradually the researchers began to find evidence that our ancestors were not so dense. Yes, they did not build the pyramids, but not on the lack of knowledge, just their interests had a completely different vector. In this regard, recently, statements about the Vedic knowledge of the Slavs began to appear frequently. Everyone who is at least familiar with the subject matter at such words will shrug their shoulders, since the Vedas are the greatest monument of Indian culture and have nothing to do with the Slavs. This is true if we consider the Vedas as a separate work. But if you look at the meaning of the word, understand them as information about the place of a person in this world, then Vedic knowledge may well be Slavic. Another thing is that because of wars and the violent change of religious beliefs, only small crumbs could have survived, providing much less information than the Indian Vedas . Known is the Veles Book, which dates from the 9th century AD. It was written by Nizhny Novgorod priests on wooden plaques, and now it is available in printed form with explanations.
In addition, many researchers find much in common between the Vedic and Slavic traditions, suggesting a single root. This idea is also inspired by the language of the Vedas - Sanskrit, studying which one can find a lot of things in common with Russian words. Writing and the principle of constructing words, of course, are different, but the fundamentals are often similar. For example, the syllable "yes" in Sanskrit means "giver", and "ta" means "one". All this shows that knowledge was common to all, just some people could save them better.
