'Hindu' didnt exist...

Q Why should we believe the Hindu Vedic scriptures? How are they bona fide? Some people asked me, "How can you believe in what someone wrote thousands of years ago?" Were the Vedas for controlling the society by making the people fearful so that they would stay within their limits?

Ans: Yes Because They Come from Krishna.
The Vedic scriptures are not Hindu. Hindu is a word coined by the Muslims. It does not appear in the Vedic scriptures.


The Vedas are bona fide because they are coming from God Himself as confirmed by Krishna in the Bhagavad-gita:
vedaiś ca sarvair aham eva vedyo
vedānta-krd veda-vid eva cāham
"By all the Vedas, I am to be known. Indeed, I am the compiler of Vedānta, and I am the knower of the Vedas."-Bg 15.15(Bg=Bhagvad Gita, As it is, available for free at http://vedabase.net/bg/en)
The fact that the Vedas are millions of years old and that they are still just as powerful and effective today as they were in ancient times proves their credibility.The ancient Vedic civilization was controlled and directed by the Vedic scriptures as explained by the Vedic sages and implemented by the Vedic kings. It was not at all a fearful society. In fact it was quite to the contrary. It was a society completely free from fear, not like today's society where you cannot trust anybody. We can't even get on airplane without being searched for weapons.
