YOL (HP), May 27: On the 46th day of the ongoing 78-day Yajna Anushthan based on the four Vedas at Ved Mandir, Yol, Yoga Acharya Swami Ram Swarup guided devotees and spiritual seekers towards the teachings of Chapter 31 of the Yajurveda, explaining that the chapter contains divine knowledge about the creation of the universe.
Elaborating on the subject, Swami referred to an interpretation by Vyas Muni of a sutra from Yog Shastra, stating that a person who lacks knowledge of creation as explained in the Vedas cannot truly be regarded as a saintly scholar. He emphasized that sincere study of all four Vedas helps remove countless doubts regarding God and the origin of creation.
During the discourse, Swami explained that according to the Vedas, all forms of nourishment and prosperity – including food grains, wealth, ghee, milk, wild animals, cows and other resources – has originated from the Almighty. Referring to Mantra 31/7 of the Yajurveda, he stated that the Rigveda, Yajurveda, Samaveda and Atharvaveda emerged from the Supreme God Himself for the welfare and happiness of humanity.
He further said that the Vedas alone impart the true knowledge of worship of the Almighty. Expressing concern, Swami noted that many people remain unaware that the four Vedas originated directly from God at the beginning of creation because they do not study the subject deeply.
Swami Ram Swarup remarked that human beings spend their lives understanding worldly necessities such as food, water, clothing, homes, businesses and social customs, as these are essential for survival. However, they rarely make efforts to know the Almighty who created the universe and bestowed Vedic knowledge upon humanity.
The discourse concluded with an appeal to seekers and devotees to study the Vedas sincerely in order to gain spiritual wisdom, understand the purpose of life and establish a closer connection with the Almighty.
