“Especially at the junction of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, European intellectuals expected an “Oriental renaissance.” The idea was that just as the study of Greek had paved the way for the first Renaissance, so the study of Sanskrit and the Vedas would launch the second.”
Devamrita Swami, Searching for Vedic India

“Oxford University offered prizes for the works that attacked Vedic knowledge.”
Devamrita Swami, Searching for Vedic India

“Even Indian scholars have been trained to feel apologetic or disdainful about what has come to be viewed as the Vedas’ gross exaggerations and fantasies concerning the ancients.”
Devamrita Swami, Searching for Vedic India
