‘Vedaah angabhootaah yasya sah – One for whom Vedas are the body parts.’ Says Sro Adi Sanakaracharya.
In the Kena Upanishad it says ‘Vedaah sarvaangaani… – all Veda-s are His limbs. Or He is Vedaangah since the Shrutis and Smritis are His command.’
ṛṣaya ūcuḥ
jitaṁ jitaṁ te ’jita yajña-bhāvana trayīṁ tanuṁ svāṁ paridhunvate namaḥ
yad-roma-garteṣu nililyur addhayas tasmai namaḥ kāraṇa-sūkarāya te (SB 3.13.34)
All the sages uttered with great respect: O unconquerable enjoyer of all sacrifices, all glories and all victories unto You! You are moving in Your form of the personified Vedas, and in the hair holes of Your body the oceans are submerged. For certain reasons [to uplift the earth] You have now assumed the form of a boar.
Innumerable universes generate from the holes of His bodily hairs, and thus His transcendental body is the Vedas personified. He is the enjoyer of all sacrifices, and He is the unconquerable Supreme Personality of Godhead.
Lets chant the Holy Name of the One who is the Vedas themselves. Lets seek from Him the capacity to follow the scriptutres to lead a vedic based life and try to practice to perfect our devotional practice.
