Vedanga Name Details

Vedanga is derived from the Sanskrit words 'Veda' meaning 'knowledge' and 'anga' meaning 'limb' or 'part'. Vedanga refers to the six auxiliary disciplines of the Vedic period, namely Shiksha (phonetics), Kalpa (rituals), Vyakarana (grammar), Nirukta (etymology), Chandas (metrics), and Jyotisha (astronomy). These disciplines were considered vital for the understanding and interpretation of the Vedas. Vedanga is a unisex name and is relatively rare.
