  • What the Upanisads Teach
    What the Upanisads Teach by Suhotra Swami Part One The Muktikopanisad lists the names of 108 Upanisads (see Cd Adi 7. 108p). Of these, Srila Prabhupada states that 11 are considered to be the topmost: Isa, Kena, Katha, Prasna, Mundaka, Mandukya, Taittiriya, Aitareya, Chandogya, Brhadaranyaka and Svetasvatara . For the first 10 of these 11, Sankaracarya and Madhvacarya wrote commentaries. Besides these commentaries, in their bhasyas on Vedanta-sutra they have cited passages from Svetasvatara Upanisad , as well as Subala, Kausitaki and Mahanarayana Upanisads. Ramanujacarya commented on the important passages of 9 of the first 10 Upanisads. Because the first 10 received special attention from the 3 great bhasyakaras , they are called Dasopanisad . Along with the 11 listed as topmost by Srila Prabhupada, 3 which Sankara and Madhva quoted in their sutra-bhasyas -- Subala, Kausitaki and Mahanarayana Upanisads --are considered more important than the remaining 97 Upanisads. That is because these 14 Upanisads are directly referred to by Srila Vyasadeva himself in Vedanta-sutra . Thus the 14 Upanisads of Vedanta are: Isa, Kena, Katha, Prasna, Mundaka, Mandukya, Aitareya, Taittiriya, Brhadaranyaka, Chandogya, Svetasvatara, Kausitaki, Subala and Mahanarayana. These 14 belong to various portions of the 4 Vedas-- Rg, Yajus, Sama and Atharva. Of the 14, 8 ( Brhadaranyaka, Chandogya, Taittrirya, Mundaka, Katha, Aitareya, Prasna and Svetasvatara ) are employed by Vyasa in sutras that are considered especially important. In the Gaudiya Vaisnava sampradaya , Srila Baladeva Vidyabhusana shines as an acarya of vedanta-darsana. Other great Gaudiya acaryas were not met with the need to demonstrate the link between Mahaprabhu's siksa and the Upanisads and Vedanta-sutra.

In two different senses the Upanishads are called ‘Vedanta’. The first statement is one meaning. Vedanta also means the culmination of the Vedic thought. In our study of Unit, we learnt that the Vedic thought began with the age of Mantras and in the course of evolution it passed through two more stages; the 1 Brahmanas and the Aranyakas. While the text and the spirit of the Brahmanas did not really make any advance over the age of Mantras, the subsequent stage, i.e., the Aranyakas applied corrective measure.

  • Who Is Gangaji & What Is She Doing?
    Who is Gangaji & What is She Doing? Unraveling Gangaji’s Home Page Introduction “Can Anyone Please Clearly State What Gangaji is doing?” What follows is an analysis of what a reader will find when they go to the Home Page for Gangaji’s Web Site at: http://www.gangaji.org/ Gangaji’s Introduction to Web Readers are in Envy Green Arial Bold, 10pt. Reasonable questions that an average responsible person might ask have been added in 8pt , Times New Roman Font. All supporting quotes are included in Times New Roman blue italic with focus portions highlighted in Bold Burnt Red. -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- Itemized Breakdown of what Gangaji says on her Home Page “There is a great secret that beings throughout time have announced, the secret of an extraordinary treasure, the treasure of the nectar of eternal life.” Gangaji does not say whom she is alluding to. We are left to assume that she is referring to great spiritual luminaries like Lord Brahma, Narada Muni, Veda Vyasa, Lord Ramachandra, Lord Krishna, Confucius, Zarathustra, Lord Buddha, Lord Jesus, Saint Thomas Aquinas, Muhammad, Lord Caitanya etc. “It is the nectar of pure beingness, recognizing itself as consciousness and overflowing in the love of that recognition.” Some of the teachings of Confucius and Lord Buddha might be able to get stretched far enough to support this statement, but those who have actually studied what the greatest sages in history taught know that they would not appreciate the vague, elusive and misleading direction Gangaji’s second sentence is heading. “If you imagine yourself to be located in a body, then you will move that body from place to place, searching for this treasure of nectar.” Here Gangaji is either exposing her ignorance or her inability to communicate clearly.

It is a plurality of the ways of understanding Being, from a rich source of ideas reflected in the Vedas, the Upanishads, and particularly in the classical systems of Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism. Metaphysics becomes explicit at various levels and in different contexts; in debates on soul, God, substances, universals, time, change, permanence/impermanence, one and many, etc. 4.2 THE VEDAS The Vedas are seen as the fertile ground of Indian metaphysics. The Vedic seers did not stop with a mythological view of Reality. They did not rest content until they had a vision of the unlimited Being (Tadekam). The hymn where the unlimited Being appears is the Nasadiya-sukta, which has been praised as containing ‘the flower of Indian thought.’ This hymn is the quintessence of Indian metaphysics. All things are traced to one principle. Opposites like being and non-being, life and death, night and day, are shown to be the self-unfolding of ‘That One.’ 40 Tadekam is the ground of the universe.

The prominence enjoyed by these forms of rituals clearly indicate that (sections numbering around one hundred and ten are devoted to the description of these forms) the chapters and sections dealing with this aspect must have been appended to the Upanishad.

  • The Philosophy of the Upanishads. by Paul Deussen
    490 NOTICES OF BOOKS. the Vedic Indians saw Indra, you must go to the SarasvatI country south of Ambala. So with individual hymns. Dr. Arnold holds that the Vimada hymns, X, 20—26, belong to the very oldest in the Rgveda, and that e.g. X, 20 is much older than I, 1. We confess that we prefer the ordinary view that the Vimada hymns, instead of being early, are badly written and late imitations in elaborate metres much beyond the powers of the poet. The first line of X, 20, 2, which is unmetrical (agnim lie bhujam ydvistham), is surely deliberately put at the head of the collection (for v. 1 is merely a fragment of a refrain) in imitation of the famous agnim lie of I, 1, 1, and shows that the Vimada hymns are later than even that not very early hymn and the collection associated with it. What may be marks of antiquity may equally well in some cases, as in this, be signs of the incompetence of the poet. The doubts we feel about Dr. Arnold's results apply mainly to his treatment of the first four of the periods into which he divides the hymns, and he has rendered a valuable service by the careful examination and determination of the features characteristic of the ' popular' Rgveda.

  • The Upanishadic Approach to Reality
    THE UPANISHADIC APPROACH TO REALITY By SWAMI SATCHIDANANDENDRA SARASWATI ADHYATMA PRAKASHA KARYALAYA Holenarsipur - 573 211. (HASSAN DISTRICf, KARNATAKA,INDlA) 1997 Books You Ought To Read Salient Features of Sailkara's Vedanta Although many books are very popular probably because their authorship has been ascribed to the great Sankara, they contain tenets in conflict with one another and the various doctrines contained in the three groups of works collectively called the 'Prasthana Tray!', indisputably ascribed to Sailkara. As it is not easy for beginners to­ consolidate and discriminate for themselves the genuine Vedantic doctrines, an attempt is made by the Swamiji to solve this problem. Pages: 110 Intuition of Reality Another masterpiece from the pen of Shri Swiimi Satchida­ nandendra Saraswati, who has very ably illustrated as to how the Vedantic Knowledge is not mere subtle intellectualism, but it is an 'Intuition' of the Ultimate Reality arising through Divine Grace. The writer has inci­ dentally refuted the oft-repeated assertion that Sankara's philosophy is an out-and-out rationalistic system and that he has provided no place for Iswara in his Advaita Philosophy. Pages: 1115 Sailkara's Clarification of Certain Vedintic Concepts The Upanishads contain two sets of teaching regarding Brahman or Reality, addressed to two different levels of the mind. To the highest grade of the aspirants belongs the disciple who has attained the mental equipment necessary for entering upon the course of study, either in this birth or who possesses an introvert mind as a result of disciplines undergone in his previous lives - qualifying him to grasp the teaching imparted in the Sruti.
