Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Vedic Hymns, Vol. 1 It is well known that Professor von Roth, one of our most eminent Vedic scholars, holds the very opposite Opinion. He declares that a metrical translation is the best com mentary, and that if he could ever think of a translation of the Rig-veda, he would throw the chief weight, not on the notes, but on the translation of the text. 'a translation, ' he writes, 'must speak for itself. AS a rule, it only re quires a commentary where it is not directly convincing, and where the translator does not feel secure.' Between Opinions so diametrically opposed, no com promise seems possible, and yet I feel convinced that when we come to discuss any controverted passage, Professor von Roth will have to adopt exactly the same principles of translation which I have followed.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rig-Veda-Sanhita, Vol. 1 When some twenty years ago I decided on undertaking the first edition of the two texts and the commentary of the Rig-veda, I little expected that it would fall to my lot to publish also what may, without presumption, be called the first translation of the ancient sacred hymns of the Brahmans. Such is the charm of deciphering step by step the dark and helpless utterances of the early poets of India, and discovering from time to time behind words that for years seemed unintelligible, the simple though strange expressions of primitive thought and primitive faith, that it required no small amount of self-denial to decide in favour of devoting a life to the publishing of the materials rather than to the drawing of the results which those materials supply to the student of ancient language and ancient religion. Even five and twenty years ago, and without waiting for the publication of Say ana's commentary, much might have been achieved in the interpretation of the hymns of the Rig-veda.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hymns From the Rigveda: Selected and Metrically Translated The chief metres are here reproduced, and each of the most important gods is represented by at least one hymn. Of the comparatively few hymns not addressed to deities, I have also chosen a certain number dealing with cosmogony and eschatology, social life and magical ideas. This volume thus furnishes an epitome of the Rigveda, the earliest monument of Indian thought, the source from which the poetical and religious literature of India has in great part been derived and developed during a period of more than three thousand years.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Vedic Hymns, Vol. 1 I finished the Preface to the first volume of my translation of the Hymns to the Maruts with the following words: 'The second volume, which I am now preparing for Press, will contain the remaining hymns addressed to the Maruts. The notes will necessarily have to be reduced to smaller dimensions, but they must always constitute the more important part in a translation or, more truly, in a deciphering of Vedic hymns.' This was written more than twenty years ago, but though since that time Vedic scholarship has advanced with giant steps, I still hold exactly the same opinion which I held then with regard to the principles that ought to be followed by the first translators of the Veda. I hold that they ought to be decipherers, and that they are bound to justify every word of their translation in exactly the same manner in which the decipherers of hieroglyphic or cuneiform inscriptions justify every step they take. I therefore called my translation the first traduction raisonnee. I took as an example which I tried to follow, though well aware of my inability to reach its excellence, the Commentaire sur le Yasna by my friend and teacher, Eugene Burnouf. Burnouf considered a commentary of 940 pages quarto as by no means excessive for a thorough interpretation of the first chapter of the Zoroastrian Veda, and only those unacquainted with the real difficulties of the Rig-veda would venture to say that its ancient words and thoughts required a less painstaking elucidation than those of the Avesta.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Hymns of the Atharva-Ve, Vol. 1: With a Popular Commentary Tat Atharva-veda is a comparatively late addition to the three ancient Vedas, the Rik, Yajus, and Sfiman the Vedas respectively of recited praise, sacrifice, and song or chanted hymn-which formed the foundation of the early religious belief and worship of the Hindus. Unlike these three Vedas, the Atharva-veda derives the name by which it is generally known, not from the nature of its contents but from a personage of indefinite Iy remote antiquity named Atharvan, who is spoken of in the Rigveda as the first priest who 'rubbed Agni forth'. Or produced fire by attrition, who 'first by sacrifices made the paths or established ways of com munication between men and Gods, and overcame hostile demons by means of the miraculous powers which he had received from heaven. To the descend ants of this Atharvan, associated with the Angirases and the Bhrigus, members of other ancient priestly families often mentioned in the Rigveda, the collected hymns called also the Atharvangirasas and the Bhriga vangirasas, that is the Songs of the Atharvans and Angirases and the Songs of the Bhrigus and Angirases.
