MUNDAKOPANISHAD
    CHAPTER-3.
    SECTION-2.
   Mantram-10. { Instructions  on  transfer  of  this  Supreme  Wisdom}.

Discussion-3. "Qualifications for the study of Upanishads ........"

The  qualifications  necessary  for  a  study  of  this  Upanishad  is  enumerated  here.

In  all  such  statements,  explaining  the  fit  'Adhikari,' ( Authority ) the  Bharatiya  ancient  sastras  of  sanatana  Dharma  which  Hindus  followed,  never  imagined  that  a  decadent  and  diseased  brhamanik  class  ( Brahmanas,  which turned into caste later )  would  at  any  time  misinterpret  them  and  make  use  of  them  as  chains  of  slavery  upon  the  Bharatiya  children ( generations ).

The  Rishis  only  meant  that  unless  one  has  all  the  qualifications  enumerated  herein,  it  would  not  fully  to  one's  profit  to  come  and  attend  discourses  on  Vedanta  or  to  spend  one's  time  and  energy  in  pursuing  the  practices  advised  there-under.  

Next : Discussion-4. ""Qualification for the study of Upanishads ........" continued  ...
To be continued ....





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

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.

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...
