How do Baha'is view the Hindu scriptures?

Do they view Hindu scriptures, such as the Rig Veda, as having any value and inspiration? I know you guys view the Bible and Koran as having inspirational value, but do you also view the scriptures of Hindus and Buddhists this way? I ask because I know Baha'is accept both Hinduism and Buddhism as religions of God, but tend to put less importance on them then they do Christianity and Islam.

Baha'is do place value and believe early scriptures have inspiration...however, we are unsure whether these scriptures .. many of which were not written down for many years after the Manifestation are accurate.. this applies to the Bible as well not just the Vedas of Buddhist scriptures..
