Concept of Supreme God in Holy Vedas (Rigveda, Yajurveda, Samaveda, Atharvaveda)
The Holy Vedas were the first Holy Scriptures which were given by God Kabir for his beloved souls. Vedas are the oldest religious scriptures which were written in Vedic Sanskrit. It is a general belief that Vedas belong to Hinduism but this is not correct. The knowledge of Holy Vedas was given during the origin of the universe. At that time there was no religion. So the Vedas are actually of the whole humankind. The Knowledge of Holy Vedas is for the whole of humanity. Vedas are Holy Scriptures for all the religions in the entire world as they predate any religion.
The Vedas have been destroyed a few times during dissolution, but God Kabir has revealed the knowledge via sages for the benefit of his devotees. The current compilation of the Vedas available to us were compiled nearly 5000 years ago, and at that time there was indeed no religion. Earlier the sages used to learn the complete Vedas by heart, but in Kalyug these have been compiled. If we look at various religions then we discover that Christianity is about 20 centuries old, Islam is around 1500 years old and Sikhism is nearly 250 years old, but Vedas have preexisted these religions. To understand the concept of creation of the universe, and to gain knowledge about Supreme God, Vedas have a significant importance.
Who has Given the Knowledge of Vedas
Till now it was believed by the sages that Brahma had given the knowledge of Vedas. But contrary to this fact, we are here to give you complete facts about who created Vedas and why?
The Vedas were originally given to Kaal Brahm by Supreme God Kavir Dev when Kaal Brahm was expelled from Satlok along with his 21 universes. At that time, Lord Kavir Dev had given Kaal the knowledge of 5 Vedas (instead of 4) which, as ordained by God Kavir, appeared via Kaal's breaths.
It is bit difficult to grasp but the closest analogy is of a facsimile. It is similar to when we fax a document from one country to another country, without any visible connection between the fax machines. Likewise Kavirdev faxed the 5 Vedas to Kaal Brahm which came out when he exhaled breath.
Kaal Brahm read all the texts which had come out. The texts contained the glory of complete God, God Kavir Dev or Kabir Saheb along with the true mantras of worship for attaining salvation. So Kaal concelaed the Ved containing maximum glory of God Kabir and presented the rest to the world.

Rigveda, Mandal 9, Sukt 96, Mantra 18
Rishimna ya rishikrit' swarshaH sahastraneethH padviH kavinam' |
Trteeyam' dhaam mahishH sisha sant' somH viraajmanu rajti stup' |
Translation: The narrator of Holy Vedas, Brahm is saying that the Purna Parmatma (Complete God) who comes in the form of an extraordinary child, attaining the title of famous poets i.e. plays the role of a saint or a Rishi (sage), the thousands of speeches composed by that God who has appeared as a saint, are provider of happiness equal to that of heaven to the individuals of saintly nature i.e. bhakts. That Eternal Purush i.e. SatPurush after establishing the very firm Earth of the third Mukti lok i.e. Satyalok, Himself being in a human-like bright material form i.e. in human-like effulgent body is seated in the dome on the high hillock-like throne.
Holy Yajurveda
- The Meaning of Yajur Veda is “Knowledge of Worship”.
- The Holy Yajurveda samhita includes about 1,875 verses. Yajur Veda contains the knowledge about how God Kabir Dev looks and whether he forgives the sins of his devotees or not?
What is the Form of Supreme God- Yajurved?
God is in form and has a human like body.
Yajurved Adhyay 5, Mantra 1
“Agne TanuH Asi | Vishnve Tva Somasya Tanur' Asi || ”
- It has been stated twice in this Mantra that Parmeshwar has a body. Eternal Purush has a body for nurturing everyone i.e. when God comes as a guest in this world for some time to explain Tattavgyan to His devotees.
- He comes by wearing a body of lighter masses of lights over His actual effulgent body that is why the evidence has been given twice in the aforesaid Mantra. A similar description of God is also given in Yajurved Adhyay 1, Mantra 15 where it says that God has a body and is in form.
God can forgive your sins – Yajurved
Yajurved Adhyay 8 Mantra 13
- It is very clearly mentioned that God can forgive sins. It is repeatedly mentioned that God forgives the sins of his worshipper. God forgives the sins done by the father.
- God even forgives/destroys the most heinous sins. God can forgive all sins done unknowingly. God can forgive all the sins done in the past or done currently.
Holy Samaveda
- Samveda is the Veda of melodies and chants. It consists of 1,549 verses.

He also increases the age of the worshipper.
Holy Atharvaveda
- The Atharvaveda is composed in Vedic Sanskrit, and it is a collection of 730 hymns with about 6,000 mantras, divided into 20 books which are called Anuvaaks.
What is the name of Supreme God - Atharva Ved
The Name of Supreme God is Kavir Dev or colloquially 'Kabir Sahib', 'Hakka Kabir', 'Sat Kabir', 'Allahu Akbar', 'Kabiran', 'Khabira'
Atharva Ved, Kaand no. 4 Anuvaak no.1 Mantra no. 7

In this Mantra, it has also been made clear that the name of that God, who has done all the Creation, is KavirDev (God Kabir).
Conclusion: The Conclusion of this whole article is as follows:-
- The four holy Vedas is the constitution of God.
- In Vedas there is full information about the supreme God, but what is the right way of worship to achieve the Supreme God, or how can we attain complete salvation has not been mentioned in holy Vedas.
If you want to know how one can attain complete salvation, and how can one achieve God, then one will have to find the refugee of a complete saint who at this point in time is Jagat Guru Rampal Ji Maharaj.
