About the abstract

I have concluded the abstract based onto English version of research papers available. The guide is
for people who want to know basics about four Vedas. The actual forms of Vedas are very vast and
consist of a number of teachings, knowledge and spiritual knowledge. I shall be thankful to all the
scholars who may wish to leave their feedbacks onto my research. The objective is to provide
knowledge to our young generation who may find hard to understand our Vedas in superior
languages. The guide will help them understand the basics of four Vedas and give them idea of the
purpose of the vast Hindu scriptures which is full of knowledge, information and guidelines toward
having a good life.
