What is Shutri
Since Vedas ... meaning of word "Shutri" has changed. From "revelation of highest order" (see Vedic perspective) to "Plain Lie" (see current perspective). I have not seen a word change its meaning so upside down ..180 degree .. I couldn't find a better word to start my bLog .. SHUTRI will cover variety of thoughts from different walks of life .. some true ...some "Not that true" .. some heard ..some remembered ..and some conceived .. Welcome ..Cheers
Vedic Perspective
Vedic Scriptures are considered “revelation” in the sense that they have been learned through the ages and come form within the course of nature. They are not a revelation from above as in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, or a revelation from the gods. Vedic Scriptures are divided into two groups. Shutri – “what is heard” . It includes Four Vedas – Rig Veda, Sama Veda, Yajur Veda, Atharva Veda. Brahmanas – ritual manuals Arankayas – forest trestisesz Upanishads – theological and philosophical reflections Smitri – ”what is remembered”. Large epic poems. Ramayana – Tells of Rama’s conquest to recover his wife Sita abducted by a demon, Ravana Mahabarata – India’s national epic Bhagavad Gita – a large Vedic work now called the forth veda. Puranas – mythic narratives of the principal deities. Sutras – Commentaries on the earlier Scriptures. Shastras – treatises of religious law Agamas – sectarian texts" SHUTRI is considered a higher form of “revelation” than the SAMITRI. Current perspective
Shutri is a word politely used for a plain and simple lie !!"
