That is very true, MMario, but the process used to memorize the Vedas is truly amazing. The pandits spend 20 years memorizing the portion assigned to their family, sometimes chanting it two words forwards and one word back, and in all sorts of other configurations to get the sequence perfect. There are still some for whom this is their entire profession.

There are also some ancient songs from Norway that are remarkably like Vedic hymns. I don't know how they are spelled but they are pronounced Yoicks.
