The term "Samhitas" refers to a collection of ancient texts in Indian literature, primarily associated with the Vedas. These texts serve as foundational scriptures in Hinduism, containing hymns, mantras, and rituals that are essential for religious practices and ceremonies. Each Samhita is a compilation of verses that convey spiritual knowledge and guidance. There are four main Samhitas: the Rigveda, Samaveda, Yajurveda, and Atharvaveda. Each of these texts has its unique focus and style, contributing to the broader understanding of Vedic literature. The Samhitas are crucial for scholars studying ancient Indian culture, philosophy, and religious traditions.
