The Hymns of the Rigveda V1

Ralph T H Griffith

The Hymns of the Rigveda V1 is a book written by Ralph T. H. Griffith. It is a collection of hymns from the Rigveda, one of the oldest sacred texts of Hinduism. The Rigveda consists of over 1,000 hymns that were composed in ancient India between 1500 and 1200 BCE. These hymns are dedicated to various gods and goddesses and are considered to be a significant source of knowledge about the Vedic period. The book contains the first 50 hymns of the Rigveda, each with an English translation and a commentary by Griffith. The commentary provides historical and cultural context for the hymns, as well as explanations of the symbolism and meaning behind the verses. The Hymns of the Rigveda V1 is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Hinduism, ancient Indian culture, or the history of religion.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
