Avatars, Gods and Goddesses of Vedic Culture
By
Stephen Knapp
The four primary Vedas , namely, the Rig, Sama, Atharva and Yajur, represent the accomplishment of a highly developed religious system.
The Vedas contain many directions for properly performing the necessary worship and particular sacrifices Or rituals in worship to these devas or demigods or the Vedic gods. Vedic knowledge helps people acquire the facilities for living a basic material existence. The Vedic texts also include information on all levels of spiritual understanding. As Bhagavad-Gita explains, for one who is fully self-realised, who is fully satiated in the self, there is no duty or need to perform the prescribed duties found in the Vedas, because he has no purpose or material desires to fulfil.
