The Bhagavad Gita is the Hindu holy book.

The Bhagavad Gita was originally written in Sanskrit but has been translated into many other languages.

The Bhagavad Gita contains many scriptures including the Vedas

The Vedas There are four Vedas, the Rig Veda, Sama Veda, Yajur Veda and Atharva Veda. The Vedas are the primary texts of Hinduism.

The Vedas contain hymns, incantations, and rituals from ancient India. The Vedas are the oldest scriptures in the world. The Literal meaning of the Vedas is ‘KNOWLEDGE’. Those scriptures from which we can acquire knowledge are called Vedas. There is no one particular person who can be attributed with the composing of the Vedas. These Vedas were given to the Maha Rishis by Bhagwan Himself. Then they were passed on from Guru to disciple.
