Vedas - An Unbiased View (Part 25)

In this Part 25:

Eternity of Vedās need not be proven because it is already popular. Just because Vedās are in the form of Vākhyās (sentences), an author need not be imagined similar to wordly works that are made of sentences. Such an inference is not right.

The inference constructed by opponent and how it is broken by Śrīmadācārya (Śrī Madhvācārya) are explained.

If it is said that Vedās have authors similar to worldly works, it is not so, because, in authored works, the popularity of being authorless is absent.

Means, in all authored works, the author is well known. Hence, authored works are popular as authored.

Vedās are authorless and the absence of author is very popular. Not only that, it is popular that Vedās are eternal.

There is no mandate that if something is made of sentences, that shall be authored. In authored works, authorship is popular and in Vedās, absence of author is popular. Hence, an author for Vedās is just an imagination of the opponent.
