MUNDAKOPANISHAD
CHAPTER-3.
SECTION-2.
Mantram-10. { Instructions on transfer of this Supreme Wisdom}.
Discussion-9. Qualification-3. "Who pursue the meditation on Brahmam" ( 'brahma-nishtah' next term ( last ) in the second line of this Mantram )
The word used here is "Brahma-nishtah."
Because here we are having a description of the qualities necessary in a seeker, we must understand this term not as one established in the "Awareness of Brahmam" but as "one who is meditating upon that goal of life pointed out by the Sruti-literature."
In short, a seeker should spend all his leisure-time in reflecting upon the one great Truth discussed in all the immortal "Upanishadik declarations."
This alone is what is meant by the term "Brahma-nishtah" here
Next : Discussion-10. ( Qualification-4. "Who possess faith" : ( 'Sraddha-yantah' last term third line of this Mantram. ) and 5. "Who offer oblations himself" : ( 'Svayam juhvate' first two terms, third line of this Mantram )
To be continued ....
