Rigvedadi Bhashya Bhumika (also known as Introduction to Vedas) is a book originally written in Hindi by Dayanand Saraswati, a nineteenth-century social reformer and religious leader in India. His other notable book was Satyarth Prakash.[1]
Purpose
[edit]The book was written with the purpose of introducing teachings of the Vedas, an ancient scripture related to Hinduism, to a lay audience. Saraswati believed that various misconceptions had been created by interpretations of the Vedas propagated by scholars such as Sayana, Mahidhara, Ralph T.H. Griffith, and Max Muller.[2]
