Schelling led Müller to relate the history of language to the history of religion.
Müller's Sanskrit studies came at a time when scholars had started to see
language development in relation to cultural development.
To this end, Müller sought to understand the most ancient of Vedic scriptures,
the Rig-Veda. Müller was greatly impressed by Ramakrishna Paramhansa, his
contemporary and proponent of Vedantic philosophy.
Max Müller says :~ "The religion of the Veda knows no idols; the worship of idols
in India is a secondary formation, a degradation of the more primitive worship
of ideal Gods.“
In Yajurveda – chapter- 32:~ It has been said that God Supreme or Supreme
Spirit has no ‘Pratima’ (idol) or material shape. God cannot be seen directly by
anyone. God pervades all beings and all directions.
The present day’s worship of individual Gods, created things, nature, and
human are against Vedic teachings, and it looks like it has been fabricated
and introduced by priestcraft. Since it, has passed on from one generation to
the next it is hard for the people to believe the truth of their own religion,
because they have sentimentally and emotionally involved in it and they
refuse to accept anything else other than their inherited beliefs.
