vEdAs are apaurushEya beyond doubt

[Guest guest]

Dear vaishNavAs,

 

In the present society of rationality(?) people often

question the authenticity of religious scriptures for

want of valid evidence in support of the views

presented in them. This category of people in general

are agnostic, if not atheistic. When an Astika

presents vEdic knowledge in a forum, often we find the

questions such as, ‘how can you guarantee the contents

of the scripture’ or ‘how can one be sure about the

book to be apaurushEya, anAdi and nityam’,……

 

Without hesitation an Astika immediately replies, ‘my

teacher authorized the contents for me as they were

authorized to him by his teacher, and so on so forth,

until the first guru, SrImAn nArAyaNa’. Again the

agnostic asks ‘how can you be so sure that any one of

the teachers in this parampara has not lied?’

 

If one carefully analyse this line of arguments, one

identifies the very nature of an agnostic is ‘to

doubt’. Our answer to such philosophers of doubt is

that, ‘how can you be ever sure of any thing when you

doubt everything’, ‘when disbelief is the only thing

in which you believe’. We further ask him

 

1. Device for us that fool-proof checking prototype

beyond all doubts, if exist any, to meet the

objections raised by an ideal (rational) agnostic.

2. Describe a basis for rejecting vEda as spurious.

 

In case of either failure to provide any of the above,

or an answer that doesnot concretely meet to refute

vEda’s authenticity; your objection on vaidikAs remain

baseless for the following reasons

1. you don’t know a formal method for yourself to

authenticate eternal scriptures, even though

theoretically it is possible to have them. In that

case, your failure is due to your own disease of

BLIND-disbelief. Further, you are even doubting those

who don’t have your disease.

2. you may ask that even the spurious books may claim

the same argument, for that we say, You can experiment

on the history for the ancient presence of our

scriptures of any available human civilization. Hence,

our argument cannot be used by others.

 

VEDAS ARE APAURUSHEYA (un-authored by any being),

anAdi (have no beginning) and nityam (eternally

valid). HENCE SANATANA (universal)

 

Sarvam SrI krishNarpaNamastu.

 

dAsOham,

SriperumbUdUru vEnkaTa vinOd.
