 "sarvE vEdA: sarva-vEdhyA: saasthrA:
 sarvE Yaj~nA: sarva ijyasaya KrishNa:"

 Lord KrishNa is every thing ;He is of the form of all the Four VedAs; He is the One to be known by all of His SaasthrAs; He is of the form of all Yaj~nAs . He is SarvAthmakan , Sarva VyApi. That is why He is saluted as : VedAya nama: " by the 129th SrI VishNu Sahasra Naamam (SVSN).He decalres in GitA : "Veda-vidEva cha : " (I am indeed the knower of all the Four VedAs). " vEdaaisccha sarvam ahamEva vEdhya: " says our Lord. He says: "I am the One to be known in all the four vEdAs ".

 Thirumangai Mannan salutes the Lord of ThiruallikkENi as Vedam and Vedatthin Suvaip-payan :

 Vedatthai Vedatthin Suvaip-payanai --Aadhiyai,
 Amudhai , YennaiALudaya Appanai" --Periya Thirumozhi:2.3.2

 In His TirukkaNNapura Paasuram , AzhwAr salutes the Lord as "Veda Mudhalvan " , the Supreme One  in the vedAs.

 In the ThiruppullANi Paasuram , ParakAla Naayaki recognizes the Lord in Viraha Taapam as :

 vedamum vELviyum ViNNum iru sudarum
 AadhiyumAnan aruL tantavavA namakku
 --Periya Thirumozhi: 9.4.9

 Here Kaliyan acknowledges the grace of the Lord and sees Him as Veda Moorthy , Yaj~na Moorthy , the vast AakAsam , the Sun and the Moon and the prime force behind the Universe.

 In a moving Paasuram saluting ThErazhundhUr PerumAL , SrI Gosakan , Thirumangai pays respect to His Chathur-Veda -Svaroopam:

 Saama VediyanE NedumAlE
 anthO NinnadiyanRi MaRRaRiyEn
 AzhunthUr mEl tisai ninRa AmmAnE
 --Periya Thriumozhi: 7.7.2
