I assume that they actually experienced what they were talking about,
and which can be still experienced by anybody today. This whole
approach rests on a transfer of spiritual knowledge from teacher to
student, which is so essential in Tantra - for which the Atharva Veda
is the direct ancester btw.
 
---------The Atharva Veda is the most tantric Veda, but it isn't the predecessor of tantra. In all Yajnas a representative of each Veda participates.

It's interesting Lhund, when we see someones response like Trinity's above, it's clear they already bought into the trend of Vaishnaivism in Hinduism since the middles age (in general) and the puritanical component in Hinduism that has risen since the British brought Christianity and Theosophy to the fore (in particular)--but they never even realized that this is what they were doing. It's a picture of decline and typical of the declining truth in western forms of Hinduism, e.g. 'everything comes from the Vedas'. I find the comment that the tantras comes from the Atharva Veda typical of those who never question what they were fed.
 
-----Fuck Trinity, he's an a.m.t. dope. The only thing he'll ever cognize is the inside of his asshole.
