The Hymn of Creation: Nasadiya Sukta | Vedas | Indian Mythology Series

Namaskar India - A History and Mythology Podcast

Jun 9 2023 • 12 mins

The Nāsadīya Sūkta after the incipit ná ásat, or "not the non-existent", is known as the Hymn of Creation. It is a collection of 7 Shlokas from the 129th Hymn of the Rig Veda's 10th Mandala. It begins and ends with questions about creation. It does not say that God created the universe, the stars, the sun, the moon, the earth, the plants, the animals, and humans, but rather asks how anyone could know how and when creation occurred, because everything and all beings, including the Devas or Gods, would have appeared only after the universe existed!
