The Vedas are accepted as the most ancient text of the world in the history of mankind. In the Indian Vedic tradition, the Vedas are considered to be God-imparted, incomparable knowledge.

Various literates, religious scholars, sect-promoters and philosophers have accepted the Vedas as a storehouse of knowledge useful to human beings and they have also accepted the Vedas as declarative of theology, Dharma and Adharma, do's and don'ts and of law.

In the present times, Maharishi Svami Dayanand Sarasvati, the founder of Arya Samaj, revived and brought to light the lost Vedic texts, and wrote scholarly commentaries on them in Samskrita which were later translated into Hindi by other Vedic scholars to reveal the eternal truths contained in the Vedas to the general public. Due to his untimely departure, he could not complete his commentaries on all the four Vedas. The commentary of the Rgveda was written by Svamiji up to the second verse of the 61 hymn of the seventh chapter and his entire commentary of the Yajurveda is available to the readers today.
