How much of the Vedas have been LOST forever?
A revelation that will shake your soul.
Read till the end to understand the spiritual and cultural loss Bharat has faced.🧵#Thread अवश्य पढ़े 👇 Image
1-The Vedas –The Timeless Knowledge
Once, there existed over 1,000,000 verses compiled by Veda Vyasa.
He organized them into 4 Vedas- Rigveda, Yajurveda, Samaveda & Atharvaveda.
But how many do we have today?
Shocking truth ahead...
2- Rigveda had 21+ shakhas (branches).
Only 1 Shakha survives
20+ Shakhas LOST forever
Each shakha carried Samhita, Brahmana, Aranyaka & Upanishad.
A whole cosmos of knowledge,gone.
3-Yajurveda had 101+ Shakhas
Only 3-4 available today
97+ are LOST
What was inside them?
Ancient rituals, cosmic science, dharma, astrology, metaphysics- erased by time & invasions.
4-Samaveda – The Veda of music & energy
Had 1000+ Shakhas
Only 3 Shakhas exist
A devastating 997+ LOST
This was the soundscape of the Rishis, the music of the soul- now just faint echoes remain.
5- Atharvaveda had 9+ Shakhas
Only 2 remain
7+ LOST
Filled with mystical mantras, healing chants, yogic sciences, and divine insights-most of it is gone.
6-Out of 1180+ known Shakhas,
Only 10–15 Shakhas are available in complete or semi-complete form.
Over 98% of Vedic Knowledge has been LOST.
Let that sink in.
7- Also Lost:
🔸 1121+ Samhitas
🔸 1124+ Aranyakas
🔸 1023+ Upanishads
🔸 1111+ Brahmanas
Each text was a universe in itself -of Yoga, Ayurveda, Dharma, Astronomy, Ritual Science & more.
8-Why does this matter?
Because these weren’t just scriptures- they were the blueprint of Vedic Civilization, the soul of Sanatan Dharma, the science of spiritual evolution.
We didn’t just lose texts.
We lost a cosmic legacy.
9-Who is responsible?
🚩 Invasions
🚩 Burning of libraries (like Takshashila, Nalanda)
🚩 Neglect of Sanskrit education
🚩 Colonial distortion of Vedic value
🚩 Modern apathy
It's time to wake up.
10-Yet, Sanatan Dharma survives.
Even with just 2% Vedic knowledge, it guides millions spiritually.
Imagine its brilliance at 100%.
Now imagine-what if we restore it?
Let’s revive, preserve, and respect what remains.
11- Vedas are not mythology.
They are eternal wisdom- applicable to life, science, healing, ethics, and moksha.
Don’t let more be lost.
Start with what we have.
Read. Practice. Share. Revive.

Blissful Braj:-The Land Where God Played.
A Sacred Thread on Vrindavan, Govardhan, Barsana, Mathura & more…
Jai Shri Krishna
🧵#Thread अवश्य पढ़े 🚩👇
#SanatanDharma Image
1-Welcome to Braj Bhoomi – not just a place on Earth, but a realm of divine vibrations.
Every dust particle here whispers tales of Krishna’s divine leelas.
Here, God became a child, stole butter, played flute, and danced with Gopis.
2- Mathura – Birthplace of Bhagwan Krishna.
In a dark prison cell, the 8th avatar of Vishnu appeared to annihilate adharma.
"Yada Yada Hi Dharmasya..." echoed first in Mathura.
It’s not just a city – it’s a prophecy fulfilled.

The 9 Sanskrit Grammars Lost to Time- ‘Nava Vyakaraṇa’
A forgotten treasure of Sanatan Dharma!
Let’s rediscover the divine roots of our language and the 9 Vyakaraṇas (Grammar Systems) of Ancient Bharat.
👇 A 🧵#Thread every Bharatiya must read. Image
1-What is Nava Vyakaraṇa?
Vyakaraṇa means "Grammar" -the science of language.
'Nava' means nine.
Our ancestors didn't rely on one book…
They had 9 grand systems of Sanskrit grammar, each from different Rishis & Devas.
Let’s explore 👇
2-All 9 grammar systems trace their origin to Shiva Sutras, revealed by Lord Shiva during his Tandava.
The divine vibrations created sounds- Maheshwara Sutras-foundation of all phonetics in Sanskrit.
Thus began Vyakaraṇa- not man-made, but Shiva-made.
