Astikata is the belief in the existence of a Supreme power, superior to man. It has been described in different flavors by different rishis, scholars and acharyas but the essence of Sanatana Dharma is that they are all Astika or hold firm belief in the existence of a Supreme Being or force that is all pervading, all encompassing, higher than the man. The Vedas are full of mantras which tell us beyond doubt that this power (God) is not only Supreme but also is One and has no form.<ref>Vidyamartand, Acharya Dharmadeva.

In the opinion of Manu, Veda is the eternal eye सनातनं चक्षुः of पितृ, देव, and मनुष्य. Veda is beyond the sphere of human power to create (अशक्यम्) and beyond the human comprehension too (अप्रमेयम्).<ref name=":12">Patel, Gautam. (1999). ''Traditional Vedic Interpretations.''
