Atharv is a name with ancient roots and modern flair. The Sanskrit name translates to “intelligent and learned.” It is also the name of Lord Ganesha. One of the Vedas, the earliest Hindu scriptures, is also termed as Atharv. It is derived from the Sanskrit term “atharvan,” meaning “priest” or “enlightened one.” It is a popular first name for boys in India and other regions of Southeast Asia. Some other variants of this name include Atharva, Atharvan, Atharvaa, and Atharvah. The Atharvaveda is a Hindu sacred scripture and one of the four Vedas, generally referred to as the “fourth Veda.” Around 1200 BCE to 1000 BCE, when the Samaveda and Yajurveda were also composed as Vedas, the Atharvaveda was written too. According to folklore, the Atharvaveda was principally composed by Atharvanas and the Angirasas. The Atharvaveda includes three types of text: the Samhita, the Brahmana, and the last tier, which comprises philosophical theories. In “Atharva The Origin,” a new age graphic novel by Virzu Studios, features a fictional character named Atharv, portrayed by Indian former international cricket player MS Dhoni. The story is set in a primitive, long-forgotten planet where a warrior must go alone and through hardship.
