ISAVASYA UPANISHAD :

or


VAJASANEYI    SAMHITA    UPANISHAD



Mantram-11.



Discussion-4. "Without  Vidya,  to  act  in  the  outer  world  of  Avidya  is  almost  impossible" ..........



This  statement is true,  it  is  certainly  unprofitable.

Without  knowing  the  rhythm  and  harmony  of  the  entire  cosmos  which  unite  together  the  plurality,  to  act  in  the  world  of  multiplicity  would  be  only  to  bring  about  more  and  more  confusion  into  the  world.


Leaders  and  workers  are  striving  to  bring  about  unity,  harmony,  peace  and  joy  in  the  world,  while  they  themselves  have  not  realised  any  one  of  these  in  themselves!


With  in  ill-adjusted  instrument  of  disharmony  and  discord,  no  musician,  however  great  and  willing  he  may  be,  can  strike  out  even  a  single  note  of  perfect  beauty  or  mastery!!



"This  mantram  says  that  certainly  the  experienced  knowledge  of  the  'Self   ( Atma-jnanam )'   would  give  us  Eternal  Liberation  and  Immortal  Existence,"  for,  thereby  we  shall  discover  that  " we  are  not  the  'body-mind-intellect  equipment  to  which  belongs  the irrepairable  change  called 'DEATH.' "


"Mortality  in  the  tragic  fate  of  'matter;'   Immortality  is  the  blissful  nature  of  the  Spirit."

Next : Discussion-5. "own  Self   is  the  Self  in  all" ....

To be continued  ....  

  



know the self, know the self in Nature, know the self in Jiva, Further Oneness.

04/06/2019 Tat Tvam Asi – You Are That! – Chandogya Upanishad Uddalaka had a son called Svetaketu. When he was twelve, his father said to him, “It is time for you to find a spiritual teacher. Everyone in this family has studied the holy scriptures and the spiritual way.” So Svetaketu went to a teacher and studied the scriptures for twelve years. He returned home very proud of his intellectual knowledge. His father observed him and said, “My boy, you seem to have a high opinion of yourself; you are proud of your learning. But did you ask your teacher for the spiritual knowledge that enables you to hear the unheard, think the unthought and know the unknown?” “What is that knowledge, Father?” asked Svetaketu. “Just as by knowing a lump of clay, everything that is made of clay can be known, since any differences are only words, and the essential reality is clay. In the same way, by knowing a piece of gold, all that is made of gold can be known, since any differences are only wo...
