The Vedas

 

"The Lord comes as an Avatar when He is anxiously awaited by saints and sages. The pious prayed - and I have come…My tasks are…Veda Rakshana and Bhaktha Rakshana - fostering of the Vedas and fostering of devotees."

 

- Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba (Divine Discourse, 1963)

 

 

"The Vedas took form, only to demonstrate and emphasise the existence of God. The Veda is a collation of words that are the Truth, which were visualised by sages who had attained the capacity to receive them into their enlightened awareness. In reality, the Word is the very Breath of God, the Supreme Person. The unique importance of the Veda rests on this fact."

 

- Sathya Sai Vahini
