The correct answer is option 4, Atharva Veda. The Atharva Veda is one of the four Vedas and it is known for containing magical charms and spells. While the other Vedas focus on hymns, rituals, and philosophical teachings, the Atharva Veda is unique in its inclusion of spells, incantations, and magical practices. It provides a comprehensive collection of protective and healing charms, as well as spells for success, love, and prosperity. It is important to note that the Atharva Veda is considered by some to be a later addition to the Vedic canon and its inclusion of magical elements reflects the diversity of beliefs and practices in ancient Indian society.
