India's culture and her glorious tradition spring from the Vedas,which are God's gift to mankind.No one can say when they were first dedicated nor predict when(and whether) they will end.They are eternal commands for shaping man's good conduct and for developing an impeccable character.They reveal God and contain advice as well as correctives.If they are upheld,humanity's happiness and prosperity will be assured.But the very source of this foundation is getting dry in the sense that the number of scholars who take to their study is dwindling.
Those who protect the Vedas will certainly get divine blessings,according to scriptural statement.These revelations spell out the Do's and Don's.They have to be learnt only through a traditional style,by oral instruction by a teacher.Its vitality has been maintained over centuries,continuously.But many are not getting trained since they do not get support from the public.
Vedic scholars can indeed be described as those having undergone the greatest sacrifice as they are not sure of their future prospects.hence, it is the duty of religious minded men to encourage them,honour them and give them an exalted status so that they can carry on the task of propagating God's message uninterruptedly.
Sri Jayendra Saraswathi in a discourse said,Vedic utterances are based on vibrant sound syllables and hence ought to be pronounced properly.Even a slight alteration in their structure could spell disaster,conveying an entirely different meaning.If chanted with deep knowledge as to what these statements convey,the benefit would be immense.Even without understanding their meaning,people would be moved,as they contain Mantras.The Vedas cover the entire gamut of man's activities.It has six constituents including Astrology.
Adi sankara derived his strength to re-establish Hinduism and faced various forces only from the Vedas.Apart from the Mantras enshrined in them,they show the path to reach God's Kingdom,making a person recall where from he hailed,where he will go and what are the obstacles for re-entering God's domain.
Unlike hymns learnt by tapes and played during personal worship,the Vedas should be mastered only through the ancient system of Gurukulam.Even the attendance at places where the Ramayana and Mahabharatha are being expounded, is becoming thin.The study of Sanskrit should be encouraged by the people and the Vedas tell us how to end the cycle of re-births.
