Vedas are above 5000 years old whereas Bhagavad Gita is above 3600 years old! All Vedas came much earlier to coming of Lord Krishna. Vedas are Hinduism revelations… direct words of God Almighty that were invoked by highly evolved sages of that era!
In yesteryears, when Lipi (script) had not yet evolved… it was only through word of mouth, teachings of all Vedas reached later civilizations! With coming of Lipi (script)… all Vedas were finally produced in written form! Lipi (the written form) developed around 2 BC.
Bhagavad Gita chapter 15 verse 15 refers to Lord Krishna affirming essence of all Vedas being Brahman (creator of all cosmos). Vedas expound that Brahman was the only truth of life and Lord Krishna repeatedly affirms it! Vedas, Brahma sutras, Upanishads and Bhagavad Gita… all affirm singularity of Brahman! Duality was never a Vedantic concept!
The teachings of Lord Krishna in Bhagavad Gita contains essence of Vedas, Brahma sutras, Upanishads… that were necessitated to reach God in present life! Lord Krishna made sure that future generations do not engage in voluminous Vedas or Upanishads (independent treatises)… more of a scholarly work… and presented everything relating to spirituality in a forthright manner!
