(56) The descension of Ved Vyas.
Bhagwan Ved Vyas, one
of the twenty-four descensions of God, reproduced all the scriptures about
5,000 years ago one after another without any substantial delay. He is
also referred to with other names in the scriptures like: Vadrayan,
Dwaipaya, Vyas, Krishn Dwaipayan and Satyavati-sut. His mother’s name was
Satyavati so he was called Satyavati-sut; he lived in Vadri-ban in
the Himalayas near Badrikashram so he was called Vadrayan; for studying
convenience he divided the Vedas into four sections (vyas means to
divide) so he was called Vyas or Ved Vyas; and his first name was Krishn
Dwaipayan.
Ved Vyas is the producer as well as the protector of
the scriptures in this age. In a samadhi state and drowned in the
Bliss of Krishn love, he is still in his cave in the Himalayas, covered
under a glacier and is totally inaccessible to human beings. There is a
reference of his personal meeting with Shankaracharya 2,500 years ago, and
another reference is about 500 years ago (in the books of Pushti Marg)
when Vallabhacharya, using his Divine powers, went to the cave of Ved Vyas
and stayed there three days, talking about the charming Blissfulness of
Krishn and His flute as described in the verse
 of the tenth canto of the
Bhagwatam.
