Vedas consist of four parts - Samhite, Brahmana, Aranyaka and Upanishad. The first two parts are called Karma Kanda and they explain how one supreme being manifests in multiple forms called Devathas in the creation, sustenance and roll back of the universe. The karma kandas explain the specifics of how divinity works with the universe and what rituals have to be performed to please specific divine beings for specific benefits.

The last part, the upanishads, also called Vedanta is classified as the Jnana Kanda and deals with the nature of the Supreme being, relatiohship between the Jeeva (individual souls) and the Paramatma (Supreme being). Some upanishads also explain the process of creation; that is, how the universe has manifested from the Supreme being.

The third part called the Aranyaka contains both Karma Kanda and Jnana Kanda.
