In this audio, famed spiritual leader Rajmani Tigunait gives an overview of the Vedas - their history and essence. Tigunait's lecturing style is energetic, and his voice is lively and steady. He begins this audio by contextualizing the Vedas in history, explaining that they are integral to the spiritual and cultural identity of India. His lecture broadens to include a more general explanation of Vedic wisdom, making the point that the Vedas are mother of all spiritual traditions, and therefore relevant to all who wish to deepen their spiritual lives.

True to the name.

The book beautifully summarises Vedas. The book makes understanding the sprit of Vedas so easy.

A beautiful message conveyed so powerfully

The spirit of Vedas so misunderstood by us was explained beautifully by Pandit Rajmani. I recommend this to be a must listen for all young people seeking guidance in their life be it material or spiritual. I am so happy I came across this

Very crisp brief introduction of Vedas

Good. Inspiring. Not very elaborate. Appreciate perspective of writer. May not be very convincing but addressed fundamentals of leadership with vedic point of view.

Wonderful!

My only complaint is that we should've gotten a gist of the other 3 vedas as well, just like we did for the Rig Veda. Other than that, perfection!
