Question : 37
Consider the following statements
- The early Vedic religion has been designated by the name of henotheism or kathenotheism—a belief in single god, each in turn standing out as the highest.
- Vedas were said to be revealed texts, called shruti (heard) as they were said to have not been composed, but rather orally revealed to humans by the gods.
a) 2 only
b) 1only
c) None
d) 1 and 2 both
Answer »Answer: (d)
Henotheism or kathenotheism has also been described as the worship of Nature leading up to Nature’s God. The chief deities of the earlier books owe their origin to the personification of natural phenomena.
Abstract deities like Dhatri, the Estabilisher; Vidhatri, the Ordainer; Visvakarman, the All-Creating, and Prajapati, the Lord of Creatures, Sraddha, Faith; Manyu, Wrath, make their appearance at a later stage. Besides the higher Gods, lauded by priests, we have reference to others whose worship was not countenanced in orthodox circles. The Vedas were authorless, not written but “heard” and remembered and passed down by the Brahmins to other brahmins. As such, they were considered absolute authority, infallible truth.
Furthermore, they were, and continue to be, considered by the Hindu tradition to be eternal, having always existed and forever existing, and thus were held not only to be perfect, but also to be, essentially, religious and social imperatives, rules to be followed absolutely.
