Mundakopanishad :

 CHAPTER-2.

SECTION-2.

MANTRAM-1.{  Pointers  to  the  nature  of  Brahmam  and  advice  how  to  know  it. }

Discussion-4. "Moving  in  the  cavity  of  the  Heart"....

Moving  in  the  cavity  of  the  Heart :

In  the  love-heart  is  the  cave  of  intellect  in  which  intelligence  resides;  and  according  to  the  vedantik  language,  Atma  or  the  Spirit  is  the  central  light  in  the  intelligence.

The  best  part  of  a  potato-puff  is  certainly  that  piece  which  is  in  the  core  of  it.

The  heart  in  a  person  is  universelly  accepted  as  the  seat  of  all  that  is  humane.

And  intellect  honeyed  by  the  sweet  contents  of  a  love-heart  alone  has  the  divine  qualities  and  the  required  subtlety  to  seek  and  find  the  Spirit  in  us.

The  consciousness  is  to  be  realised  in  the  intelligence  when  it  is  integrated  completely  through  a  harmonious  process  of  balanced  development  of  both  the  head  and  the  heart.

Next : Discussion-5. "Great  and  the  support  of  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...
