it is better to remain ignorant of the vedas than to read versions of griffith,max muller,bloomfield & like

He means you have to understand संस्कृत (Samskrut / Sanskrit / Sanskrut/ Samskrit whatever you pronounce). To understand properly because fake translations are made by anti-Hindus and paid writers.

This time Swami Dayanand's work is much better to understand, Yāska's Nirukta is also a good commentary on Vedas. But unfortunately English translations of their works are not very good.
