Veda - sankrit for wisdom
Also know as the Hindu's sacred scriptures.
Rig - Veda = Veda of Hymns
Sama - Veda = Veda of Chants
Yajur - Veda = Veda of sacrifice
Artharva Veda = Earlier version of thee above
The Mahabharta - includes Bhagavad Gita.
---------------
I must say the Above Scriptures were the most exciting out of all that I had read, hard to follow along with at times, but surely poetic, and thought provocting.

A good book to read about and with excerpts if these is called..
The Vedic Experience by Professor Raimon Panikkar
