О книге

Excerpt from Sakuntala; Or the Fatal Ring: A Drama; To Which Is Added Meghaduta; Or the Cloud Messenger; The Bhagavad-Gita; Or Sacred Song

The centre from which the various branches of the Indo-European family emigrated is placed by scientists, generally, in Central Asia, to the north of India. One branch, the Aryans, wended its way from the high plains through the passes of the north-west of India, and settled in the country known as the Punjab, and it is from this ancient race that the Hindus are descended.

The earliest known literature of the Aryans has come down to us in the form of a collection of prayers and hymns known as the Rig Veda. These were composed at different periods, and handed down orally from one generation to another until collected together in their present form. In this mass of writing - in all there are one thousand and twenty-eight hymns in the Rig Veda - are embedded the beliefs, thoughts, manners, and customs of the Aryans, and the collection is interesting if on this account alone.
