		They are four; Rigveda, Samaveda, Yajurveda and Atharvaveda, but they are spoken as ‘Trayi’, the triple vidya or the threefold knowledge because they deal with jnan, bhakti and karma, and are in verse, songs and prose.
		The Rigveda underlines the path of jnan or knowledge, the Yajurveda that of karma or action, and Samaveda the path of bhakti or devotion and total surrender.
		They are invariably referred to as the “Triple Eternal Vedas” (trayam brahma sanatanam), probably because the Atharvaveda, the last one, is relatively of quite a late origin.

		It was after the arrival of the Europeans to the Indian subcontinent that an organized and sincere effort was made to introduce the Vedas to the academic circles of the West in the form of translations and commentaries.
		The Vedas are four in number, namely the Rigveda, the Yajurveda, the Samaveda and the Atharvaveda, of which the Rigveda is the oldest and probably composed at a time when the Vedic Aryans were not yet fully settled and were wandering around either in the Indian subcontinent or elsewhere in search of a suitable homeland.
		The word 'veda' means knowledge or wisdom and from the word veda are derived the words vid (to know), vidya (study or education), vidvan (the scholar) and vedavid (the knower of the Vedas).
