Talk:Vedic (disambiguation)

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

shouldn't the content of this page be included into other articles? olivier 11:24 Apr 28, 2003 (UTC)

I think so. "Vedic" apparently relates to the Vedas or Vedic civilization. Alternatively this one could be renamed to "Vedic culture" or something. ( 00:03, 12 Nov 2003 (UTC)
I merged it into Vedic civilization. The later could always be split again later if it became too large ( 10:48, 12 Nov 2003 (UTC)

Complicated disambiguation

[edit]

I would think that there is either an article pending, or a need to revisit the complexity of this page, or how to set it up. I know nothing about the subject matter, and this page does not explain or particularly help. For a reasonably obscure topic matter, there are a lot of confused people quoting the word, and it would seem that maybe a separate disambig page should exist as there may be a common thread on what is -- billinghurst (talk) 13:30, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

it's a disambiguation page. Its only purpose is helping you pick the article you may have been looking for. --dab (š’³) 14:24, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
That helps, thanks. -- billinghurst (talk) 04:49, 10 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ancient Persian Vedas

[edit]

I wanted to verify if a general doctrine of reincarnation as found in the Hindu Vedas was the same as that found in the ancient Persian Vedas and turned to Wikipedia. All I find is information on the Hindu Vedas. I don't even know what the Persian Vedas were called. Could someone more knowledgeable than I add an entry at least giving the name of this other literature? Or is it the same thing? Thanks.Ermadog (talk) 08:37, 2 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Why on earth would you ask this question at "Talk:Vedic (disambiguation)"? You should try WP:RD/H. Fwiiw,

  • there are no "Ancient Persian Vedas" and
  • there is no "general doctrine of reincarnation" in the Hindu Vedas

so your question does not really compute. If you are interested in reincarnation, you should read our reincarnation article, which will inform you that the concept emerges after the end of the Vedic period. --dab (š’³) 16:13, 4 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
