The story behind "The Vedas"

 

The Vedas (Sanskrit वेद véda, "knowledge") are a large body of texts originating in ancient India. Composed in Vedic Sanskrit, the texts constitute the oldest layer of Sanskrit literature and the oldest scriptures of Hinduism.^[1]
The class of "Vedic texts" is aggregated around the four canonical Saṃhitās or Vedas proper (turīya), of which three (traya) are related to the performance of yajna (sacrifice) in historical (Iron Age) Vedic religion:

1. The Rigveda, containing hymns to be recited by the hotṛ;
2. The Yajurveda, containing formulas to be recited by the adhvaryu or officiating priest;
3. The Samaveda, containing formulas to be sung by the udgātṛ.

The fourth is the Atharvaveda, a collection of spells and incantations, apotropaic charms and speculative hymns.^[2]

"Owners Kapil Grover and Amrik Badwal have plenty of experience in both service and the kitchen at Vancouver restaurants such as Maurya on West Broadway, and hope to introduce the North Shore to a few of their favourite dishes: fruit chaat, made with homemade dressing and spices; chicken lollipop (deep-fried drumsticks); and a lamb curry made with rum." -Deana Lancaster, North Shore News
