Dictionaries of the Vedas (Set of 3 Books)

This set consists of 3 books:

1) A Practical Vedic Dictionary

2) Encyclopaedic Dictionary of Vedic Terms (In 2 Volumes)

3) Dictionary of Vedas

Almost all the words in the four Vedas have been defined in Hindi and English in this new dictionary. The entries have been illustrated with examples to make their meanings clear, and many words not found in earlier dictionaries are included in this work. In several instances fresh and more accurate meanings (and etymologies) have been provided where those in the traditional and other modern dictionaries seemed misleading.

The work incorporates the results of the latest researches in the field and includes, besides many others, all the words treated in MacDonnell’s great Vedic Grammar (1909). This Dictionary is the first comprehensive Vedic dictionary, for earlier works cover either the Rgveda alone or the whole of Sanskrit literature-in either case they do not adequately meet the needs of the Vedic student.
