Abstract

India is a knowledge based civilization. It has always been following one of the greatest traditions of
‘आनोभद्राःक्रतवोयन्तुववश्वताः ’. This open mindedness or the pursuit and acceptance of knowledge from anywhere in
the world has been the tradition in India. When it comes to literary tradition one can trace the continuity in
this tradition through the influence of Vedic Literature for thousands of years. This influence, in oral
tradition, has survived and is intact to speak of the importance of knowledge in India since the oldest text the
Rigved originated. Vedas are the impulse of all Indian literatures.
