About The Book -: This is the Ralph T.H. Griffith translation of the Atharvaveda. The Atharvaveda is a Vedic-era collection of spells, prayers, charms, and hymns. The Atharva-veda is a comparatively late addition to the three ancient Vedas the Rik, Yajus and Saman the Vedas repectively of recited praise, sacrifice and song or chanted hymn—which formed the foundation of early religious belief and worship of the Hindus. Unlike these three Vedas the Atharva-Veda derives the name by which it is generally known not form the nature of its contents but from a personage of indefinitely remote antiquity named Atharvan.
