Vedic India as Embodied Principally in the Rig-Veda by Zenaide A. Ragozin is a comprehensive study of the ancient Vedic civilization of India, focusing primarily on the Rig-Veda, one of the oldest and most revered texts of Hinduism. The book explores the history, culture, and religion of Vedic India, examining the social and political structures, the role of women, and the importance of rituals and ceremonies in daily life. Ragozin also delves into the spiritual beliefs and practices of the Vedic people, including their worship of various gods and goddesses, their ideas about the afterlife, and their understanding of karma and reincarnation. The author draws on a wide range of sources, including the Rig-Veda itself, as well as other ancient texts, archaeological evidence, and modern scholarship. This book is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history and culture of ancient India, as well as for students of religion, anthropology, and world history.1895.
