Abstract
There is a significant need to understand our ancient literature, such as the Vedas, to cultivate a positive attitude toward our surroundings. The Rigveda is not only the oldest Veda among the four Vedas but also serves as a vital source of ancient knowledge and wisdom. The mantras of the Rigveda may not appear as refined or lyrical as the verses of Kalidasa, yet when we read them with the intent to discover our truth, traditions, and ancestral heritage, they begin to resonate with us. The Rigveda offers a vivid portrayal of ancient Indian society. Its hymns shed light on the social structure of the Rigvedic era and provide deep insight into the social, economic, and religious life of that time. This research paper explores various aspects of the Rigvedic period, including its holistic education system, the cordial teacher-student relationship, economic conditions, dignified marriage customs, and the equal status of women in society. Women actively took part in religious ceremonies and rituals alongside their husbands. People of that era worshipped deities who primarily represented natural forces. Through a careful analysis of the Rigveda, this paper presents detailed information about Rigvedic society. In today's fast-paced world, focusing on ancient texts has become increasingly difficult due to constant distractions. However, this research paper aims to offer at least a basic understanding of the Rigvedic age to the readers and also reflects how the morals and ethics conserved in the Rigveda stay appropriate even today.
