Difference between Vedas, Puranas & Upanishad's

Writer's picture: PujareePujaree

Vedas are eternal law books, constitution-

Rig Ved- Complete knowledge

Yajur Ved- Knowledge to perform vedic rituals, Yagya etc

Sam Ved - Melody collections means song book called Archika

Atharv Ved - knowledge of magical formulas


These laws are called eternal because it remains unchanged irrespective of time, era, any religion or belief.



Puranas are the law journals, case histories of those laws, our historical records. Like Mahabharata, Ramayan, Bhagwat puranas contains our histories about Lord Ram, Lord Krishna, Prahlad Maharaja, Dhruv Maharaja, Ggreat sages like Vyasdev, Viswamitra, Kashyap, Valmiki etc. It tells about those who followed these laws in their life.


Uapnishad’s are the philosophical part of Vedas. Means it tells about what is the law and how should we apply it in our life. Like Gitopnishad, also called Bhagwat Gita contains essence of all Vedas.
