ருதமும் ஸத்யமும் என்ற தலைப்பில் வந்த என் முந்திய தொடர் போல அக்னியைப் பற்றிய இந்தத் தொடரும் சிறு சிறு பகுதிகளாக வெளிவரும். எவரேனும் விரும்பினால் இது தமிழிலும் தரப்படும்.
Contrary to popular belief, the Vedic rishis did not live a life of renunciation but enjoyed every bit of this worldly life. They found joy in each and every object they saw and every sound they heard. They viewed life just like a child does. The child is not bored at seeing a familiar thing like the little ant repeatedly and wondering at it. This child - like sense of wonder is perceptible throughout the hymns of Rig Veda.
While they observed the nature like a child, they expressed their observations as an experienced poet endowed with a fertile imagination. In the subsequent posts we will see some of the Vedic hymns where these two are harmonized.
