A. Rig Veda

B. Sama Veda

C. Yajur Veda

D. Atharva Veda

Answer: Option D

Solution(By Examveda Team)

'Ayurveda,' the ancient Indian system of medicine and healing, has its origins in the Atharva Veda. The Atharva Veda is one of the four Vedas in Hindu scriptures and contains hymns, prayers, and verses related to various aspects of life, including health and well-being.

Ayurveda is a holistic system of medicine that focuses on promoting a balanced and harmonious life by emphasizing the interconnectedness of the body, mind, and spirit. It provides guidelines for maintaining health, preventing illnesses, and treating various ailments using natural remedies, herbs, diet, lifestyle practices, and therapies.

While the other Vedas (Rig Veda, Sama Veda, and Yajur Veda) also contain valuable knowledge related to various aspects of life, Ayurveda specifically finds its foundation in the Atharva Veda.

Therefore, the correct answer is Option D: Atharva Veda, as it is the Veda from which the principles and knowledge of Ayurveda originated.
