The Vedas are held to be the main and original source of all knowledge, temporal and transcendental. This includes divine knowledge of God, the mystery of creation, etc, as well as all else pertaining to the attainment of all the goals of human existence. The Vedas are infinite, eternal and endless, and are believed to be ‘apaurusheya,’ that is, not made by any human being. They are known as Sruti and the authority of the Vedas does not depend on anything external for they are considered to be the very breath of the Supreme Brahman and hence the very word of God.
