A deep dive into the monumental legacy of Veda Vyasa, the legendary sage who shaped the spiritual and literary landscape of India. Revered as the original Guru, Vyasa is credited with compiling and dividing the vast, single Veda into the four texts (Rigveda, Samaveda, Yajurveda, and Atharvaveda). This episode explores his genius as the author of the epic Mahabharata (the world's longest poem, containing the Bhagavad Gita), and his composition of the 18 Puranas. Discover how the "Compiler" made divine knowledge accessible to all generations and why his teachings remain the foundation of Hindu philosophy today.
