Excerpt from Original Sanskrit Texts, Origin and History: The People of India, Their Religion and Institutions When I speak, however, of the lzz'story of the Veda, I am reminded that I am employing a term'which will suggest to the philosophical reader the idea of a minute and systematic account of all the various opinions which the Indians have held in regard to their sacred books from the commencement, through all the succes sive stages of their theological development, down to the present time.
