| | Atharvaveda - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The Atharvaveda (Sanskrit: अथर्ववेद, atharvavéda, a tatpurusha compound of atharvān, a type of priest, and veda meaning "knowledge") is a sacred text of Hinduism, and one of the four Vedas, often called the "fourth Veda". | | | The Atharvaveda is also the first Indic text to mention Iron (as śyāma ayas, literally "black metal"), so that scholarly consensus dates the bulk of the Atharvaveda hymns to the early Indian Iron Age, corresponding to the 12th to 10th centuries BC or the early Kuru kingdom. | | | The Jaina and Buddha texts are considerably more hostile to the AV (they call it Aggvāna or Ahavāna Veda) than they are to the other Hindu texts. |

| | ATHARVVEDA |
| | Atharvaveda Samhita, the fourth of the Vedas, is regarded to be the last. | | | But certainly some of the hymns of Atharvaveda must have been as old a those of the Rigveda. | | | It is quite possible that a majority of hymns of Atharvaveda were composed and complied relatively later after the example of Rigveda. |

| | Shakha - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Concerning the text of the Vedas themselves (the Mantras), the differences between the shakhas are minor, except for the case of the Atharvaveda. | | | The Bashkala recension of the Rigveda has the Khilani which are not present in the Shakala text. | | | Both the Shaunakiya and the Paippalada traditions contain textual corruption, and the original text of the Atharvaveda may only be approximated from comparison between the two. |

| | This is a critical edition of the Kramapatha and Jatapatha forms of recitational permutations of several sections of the Saunakiya Atharvaveda available in six rare manuscripts found in Pune, India. | | | Such recitational variations for the Atharvaveda are no longer available in the surviving oral tradition in India, and hence the texts, critically edited here, provide rare access to these materials. | | | The texts offered here allow scholars to compare the recitational tradition of the Atharvaveda with those of other Vedas, which are still available in the surviving oral tradition. |

| | The great teacher Shankara states in his commentary on the Mundaka upanishad that the vow of the spiritual aspirant shaving the head is traced to the Atharva. | | | The appropriateness of these names comes from the fact that AV Samhita has a large number of hymns on the associated topics. | | | The sanctity of the Atharvaveda samhita is also apparent in another way. |

| | The ancient names of the science of medicine is Ayurveda, "the Veda for (lengthening of) the span of life", that is considered an upanga (subsidiary) to the Atharvaveda. | | | In the magical strophes of the Atharvaveda and in the magical rites of ritualistic literature described in particular in the Kausikasutra, belonging to the Atharvaveda, we find the early beginnings of an art of healing and of a knowledge of healing herbs. | | | Further even in the Vedic texts we find the beginning of a science of anatomy, of an embryology and of a hygiene. |

| | The fourth Veda is Atharvaveda, which deals with danger from evil spirits and prescribed formulae of magic to control the demons and evil spirits. | | | Scholars say that for long time this was not acknowledged as Veda as it got different spirit of address than the Rig Veda but similarity with the essence can be found. | | | Thus we find a systematic code of worship developed in the Yajurveda. |
