MUNDAKOPANISHAD

CHAPTER-3.

SECTION-1.

MANTRAM-8. { Unique  means  of  Self-realisation  ---  purification  of  mind. }

 Discussion-8. "Realisation,  thereafter,  is  immediate  and  fruitful"

When  reading  "Jnana  Prasada" or  "Atma  Prasada" or  " "Sattva  Prasada"  etc.,

a  true  student  of  Vedantam,  striving  in  the  path  honestly  to  follow  the  Eternal  footprints  of  the  Rishi-s,  should  understand  it  to  mean,  : -

 "the  purification  gained  by  his  mind-intellect-equipment  through  a  renunciation  of  his  false  values,  wrong  attachments,  delusive  vanities  and  low  animal  instincts."  

 The  more  a  mind  is  redeemed  from  its  psychological  aberrations,  te  more  such  a  mind  becomes  subtle  and  pure.

 A  pure  mind  agitates  the  least.

 In  the  still  pool  of  theb  mind  a  clear  reflection  of  "Pure  Awareness" comes  to  play.

"REALISATION  THEREAFTER,  IS  IMMEDIATE  AND  FRUITFUL."

 Discussion  of  Mantram -8. ENDS.

 NEXT : MANTRAM-9. { Realisation  of  Self  in  human  body  through  purification  of  mind }

To be continued  .....



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

Tat Tvam Asi – You Are That! – Chandogya Upanishad

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...
