Guest guest Posted June 18, 2007 Report Share Posted June 18, 2007 I am looking for as literal a translation as possible, as well as any interpretative ones, for this verse, Rg Veda I.75.5: Rtam. satyam vijnani. Can't get the diacritics in there right, but you get the idea. thanks in advance, sadhaks!

Guest guest Posted June 19, 2007 Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 Literally " Rtam " is By Law, As a Rule, Permanent, Always, Divine etc " Satyam " is Truth and " Vigani " is some one who is proficient in a specific Branch of knowledge as opposed to all knowing " Jnani " . Brighu Samhita Chapter 7 is all about the difference between Jnana and Vijnana. Some one in this scholarly group who has studied Vedas may comment on the meaning and interpretation of this statement Max Dashu <maxdashu wrote: I am looking for as literal a translation as possible, as well as any interpretative ones, for this verse, Rg Veda I.75.5: Rtam. satyam vijnani.
