About The Book

The Dictionary of the Vedic terms is a comprehensive information of vedic terms and terminology w ith a view in making vedic slud> more interesting and research oriented. Numerous books have been written in the Vedas and its subsidiary literature by authors who takes it for granted the reader is already familiar with the significance of important terms and concepts acquiring in the text. But this assumption is not correct. The Vedas is not for scholar or pundit but also for the common man for whom it is not possible to refer to scholarly books. This dictionary has been prepared after consulting dozen dictionaries and encyclopaedias on the Hindu literature, history, science, political life, prepared by imminent scholars.

Preface

An authentic, outstanding and wide informative double volumes “Encyclopaedic Dictionary of Vedic Terms** is compiled, edited and arranged all important terms and terminology of Vedic religio-cultural and literary tradition in alphabetical order by a leading Vedic scholar who has recreated with all the splendour and mystery of vedic literature.

The need for new dictionary on vedic terms and concepts that would meet the requirement of contemporary readers and research scholars, has been recognised. This Dictionary attempts to make a more contribution to the literature on Vedas with a view in making its vedic study more interesting and research oriented. Though numerous books have been writtten on vedas and its subsidiary literature by way of commentaries, translations and other research works by scholars who take it for granted the reader is already familiar with the significance of important terms and concepts occurring in the texts. But this assumption is not correct. The Vedas are not only for scholars and Pandits , but also for the common man, for whom it is not possible to refer scholarly books. My Dictionary, thus, meets a real need of contemporary readers and research scholars.

This Encyclopaedic Dictionary is vast collection of entries dealing with various aspects of Vedas: psychology, philosophy, religion, socio¬ economic aspects, cosmology, ethics, mythology, symbolism, art and architecture, ascetic practices of purification, language and literature-canonical and non-canonical, metapysics and physics, building architecture, fasts and festivals, rites and rituals, tantricism, sacred vedic centres, monks and nuns, cosmic spirit, social, political, economic and cultural geography, eschatological concept chronology and history, solution of environmental crisis and peaceful coexistence of human being.

More than an academic exercise, this encyclopaedic Dictionary represents a vast range of sources of both published as well as unpublished materials. In presenting this work. I can not refrain from expressing my profound gratitude to those scholars whose works made this work easier.

It is a pioneering attempt to provide a compresensive research and study of the Vedic religio-cultural and literary tradition. This Encyclopaedia is vast collection of several renowned scholars. This series is for the benefit of the students, teachers, and research scholars as well laymen who wish to know the key aspects of vedic terminology. The editor has brought here his keen experience in advance research on vedic literature.
