Rigveda
This term refers to a specific, singular sacred text of ancient India. Because it is a proper noun designating a unique body of literature, it is treated as a singular entity in English usage.
In academic and theological contexts, the word is used to denote the foundational scripture of the Vedic tradition. It is rarely used in a plural sense, as it represents a specific collection of hymns rather than a category of books.
