VEDIC CHANT

The Vedas are the foundation of all philosophy in the Indian tradition. Vedic chanting is considered one of the most important tools of yoga for healing, maintaining health and uplifting the spirit.

The word “Veda” means knowledge.  Knowledge of what? knowledge of everything, what we see and what we do not see. This knowledge is said to be “śruti” meaning “that which was heard”.

The Ṛṣīs, ancient sages, in a deep state of meditation, received these sacred sounds containing Universal knowledge.  The origin of this revelation is not clear 1500-3000 BC? They were transmitted orally and are still chanted today.
