Vedas Message-ID: <1362@idunno.Princeton.EDU> Date: 23 Jul 90 13:42:04 GMT Sender: mukund@idunno.Princeton.EDU Lines: 18 Approved: mukund@idunno.Princeton.EDU Since someone on the net has suggested the Vedas as a spiritual path, let me ask a few questions, since Indian philosophy strikes me as complex. What are the Vedas. Do they include the Bhagavad Gita? If so, what else? How are the Vedas connected with Yoga? Would all yogis accept the Vedas, or does it depend on who you talk to? Are there any good introductory books on Vedic philosophy you would recommend? The indian medical system that's becoming popular - aryuveda (sp?), is this connected? thanks ando
