Bhagavan Veda Vyasa -, The Jagadguru
“The happiness which comes from long practice, which leads to the end of suffering, which at first is like poison, but at last like nectar – this kind of happiness arises from the serenity of one’s own mind”. – Vyasa
Vyasa is the legendary author of the Mahabharata, Vedas and Puranas, some of the most important works in the Hindu tradition. He is also called Veda Vyāsa (वेदव्यासः, veda-vyāsaḥ, “the one who classified the Vedas”) or Krishna Dvaipāyana (referring to his dark complexion and birthplace).
The festival of Guru Purnima is dedicated to him. It is also known as Vyasa Purnima, the day believed to be both of his birth and when he divided the Vedas. Vyasa is considered one of the seven Chiranjivis (long-lived, or immortals), who are still in existence according to Hindu tradition.
Bhagavan Veda Vyasa classified the Vedas into Rig, Yajus, Sama and Atharva and imparted them to Paila, Vaishampayana, Jaimini and Sumantu respectively. He penned the Brahmasutras to succinctly convey the import of the Upanishads. Bhagavan Veda Vyasa composed the 18 Mahapuranas, Upapuranas and the Mahabharata to describe the way of life adjoined in the Vedas, and to make easily accessible the principal philosophical tenets of Sanatana Dharma for all. In addition, these works contain many hymns including those widely chanted such as Sri Vishnu Sahasranama, Sri Lalita Sahasranama, Sri Shiva Sahasranama, Sri Durga Saptashati among others.
