We
must not distrust the belief that the Vedas are not the work of
mere mortals. Followers of other religions too ascribe divine
origin to their scriptures. Jesus says that he merely repeats the
words of God and, according to Muslims, the prophet speaks the
words of Allah. What we call "apauruseya" is revealed
text in their case. The word of the Lord has come through the
agency of great men to constitute religious texts.
Whatever
our field of work, must be dedicated to it with one-pointedness
of mind for its truths to be revealed. They say that such truths
come to us in a flash. A professor told me that the Theory of
Relativity occurred to Einstein in a flash, that he knew it
intuitively. If we accept such claims, how can we dismiss the
belief that Vedas are not the work of mortals, that they revealed
themselves to the seers in their heart-space, seers who
were inwardly pure?
