Vedas are the true source of knowledge whether it is about Universe creation, Earth Creation, Human creation, and evolution.
Some see Rigveda as spiritual text some see it as a philosophical text. But one thing which every one notes is, Rigveda contains many historical records as well. For example, Rigveda has complete hymn for the Battle of Ten Kings which fought between Sudas and other Ten kings.
Rigveda tells the north and south phenomenon about six month day and six month night in Ushas hymns. Many geographical changes ancient rishis recorded in Rigveda in recorded which modern science confirms.
But the kind of information Vedas possesses, unfortunately, people do not debate on them as much they do about the construction date of Vedas and how Vedas reached to the ancient humans.
Not only Indian but many foreigners scholars studied Vedas and translated it to English. Scholars said:
Vedas are the oldest texts in the world. Their time can not be fixed. Their language is equally difficult for Indians as much as for foreigners.
Ved scholar Dalengan
They are made of that date, to reach there we do not have the appropriate resources. Current knowledge of humanity and resources are unable to take us the advance stage.
