Om isn't just a sound to chant — the shortest Upanishad in the entire canon uses its three letters to map the whole of consciousness, waking, dreaming, and deep sleep, and then points past all three to something else entirely.
The Nasadiya Sukta doesn't claim to know how the universe began. It's one of the oldest surviving texts to openly admit that maybe nobody does — not even the gods. Here's the actual hymn, verse by verse.
The Upanishads don't just assert reincarnation happens — one of them describes an actual mechanism, tracing a soul through the moon, rain, and plants back into a new body. Here's that passage, and what the Gita adds on top of it.
"Do your dharma" gets repeated as a one-line summary of the whole Gita, but the text is specific about what that actually means — and it's not the same claim as "obey whatever role you're assigned." Here's the argument, chapter and verse.
"You are That" gets quoted constantly as vague spiritual wisdom. It's actually the punchline of a specific, nine-times-repeated teaching a father gives his son in the Chandogya Upanishad. Here's the real passage, and its three sibling teachings from the other Upanishads.
Action, devotion, and knowledge — the Gita presents all three as genuine paths to the same goal, not a hierarchy with one correct answer. Here's what each one actually argues, chapter and verse, not the flattened one-line version.
The Gita isn't a standalone scripture — it's 700 verses embedded inside a much longer war epic, spoken on a battlefield between two armies. Here's exactly where it sits in the Mahabharata, and an honest map of what each of its 18 chapters actually covers.
Most people who say "the Vedas" couldn't name what's actually in them. Here's what's genuinely inside each of the four — the Rigveda's hymns, the Yajurveda's ritual manuals, the Samaveda's melodies, and the Atharvaveda's spells for daily life.
