There are many quotations from the Vedic literature that amply illustrate the high regard that vdk was held in.
There are many quotations from the Vedic literature that amply illustrate the high regard that vak was held in. It is said that omkara represents all speech; that alone is manifest in different forms as all the syllables.
omkara eva hi sarva vak I saisa sparsesvabhivyajyamana bahvT nanarupa bhavati I
Omkara is the source of all the Vedas, all knowledge. The word "Brahma" also refers to knowledge. It is recorded in the Vedas that vak has created this diverse Universe; there is nothing more primary than vak itself.
The Brhadaranyaka Upanishad has equated speech with Brahman. <blockquote>वाग्वै सम्राट्परमं ब्रह्म । (Brhd. Upan. 4.1.2)<ref>Brhadaranyaka Upanishad ([https://sa.wikisource.org/wiki/%E0%A4%AC%E0%A5%83%E0%A4%B9%E0%A4%A6%E0%A4%BE%E0%A4%B0%E0%A4%A3%E0%A5%8D%E0%A4%AF%E0%A4%95_%E0%A4%89%E0%A4%AA%E0%A4%A8%E0%A4%BF%E0%A4%B7%E0%A4%A6%E0%A5%8D_4p Adhyaya 4])</ref></blockquote>In Rigveda (also in Atharvaveda, Taittriya Aranyaka and Shatapatha Brahmana) we come across the four fold division of Vak (वाक्) an important aspect of Vyakarana.<ref>Subramanya Sharma.
