Rig __: Sanskrit text with more than 1,000 hymns (4)

I believe the answer is:

(Other definitions for veda that I've seen before include "Most ancient and sacred literature of Hindus" , "holy book" , "Hindu scriptures" , "Sacred literature of Hindus - asks Dave" , "Most sacred literature of Hinduism" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times.
