Synopsis

The Hymns of the Rigveda V1 is a book containing a collection of ancient Hindu hymns from the Rigveda, translated and interpreted by Ralph T. H. Griffith. The Rigveda is one of the oldest sacred texts of Hinduism, composed in Sanskrit around 1500 BCE. The book is divided into ten mandalas or books, each containing several hymns. The hymns are dedicated to various deities, such as Agni, Indra, Varuna, and Soma, and cover a wide range of topics, including creation, sacrifice, and praise of the gods. The translation by Griffith is considered one of the most accessible and accurate translations of the Rigveda in English. The book is an important resource for scholars of Hinduism, as well as those interested in ancient Indian literature and religion.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1896 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
