Answer: B

Step-by-step explanation:

“The Vedas were ancient Indian texts that became the basis for the Hindu religion.” They included astronomy, “explored the relationship of the human soul to the material world” and had “the earliest mentions of yoga, meditation, and mantras.”

The statement that best describes the Vedas is that they are books written by Brahmans to preserve Aryan traditions. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the last option or option "d". The Vedas are thought to have been composed during a period between 1500 BC to 700 BC. I hope the answer helps you.
