Upanishads
Author: Acharya Prashant
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781636333984
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 334
Book Description
Upanishads, in the words of Adi Shankaracharya, are known as Ātmavidyā (knowledge of the self) or Brahmavidyā (knowledge of Brahma). This ancient and timeless stream of knowledge needs no introduction to state its relevance in present modern times. What is needed is the cleansing of the dirt that has accumulated around it through ages, in the name of superstitions, superficial treatments, esoteric rituals, methods, entertainment―resulting in an escape from bare realities of life. This book is a collection of sessions of Acharya Prashant with genuine seekers who are fed-up of self-imposed bondages and are prepared to honestly pay the price for their liberation. About Upanishads: The Sanskrit term Upaniṣad (from upa ""by"" and ni-ṣad ""sit down"") translates to ""sitting down near"", referring to the student sitting down near the teacher while receiving spiritual knowledge (Gurumukh). The Upanishads are commonly referred to as Vedānta. Vedanta has been interpreted as the ""last chapters, parts of the Veda"" and alternatively as ""object, the highest purpose of the Veda"". Along with the Bhagavad Gita and the Brahmasutra, the Mukhya Upanishads (known collectively as the Prasthanatrayi) provide a foundation for the several later schools of Vedanta. Around 108 Upanishads are known, of which the first dozen or so are the oldest and most important and are referred to as the principal or mukhya Upanishads.

The Bhagavad-Gita

Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 1475911815
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 432
Book Description
Gita teaches man the essentials of living in this world and beyond: Your soul is eternal and indestructible; the body beautiful is only a garment; beings and universe arose from an act of sacrifice by God; the burden of samsara (cycle of births and rebirths) can be shed by devotion to God; man by his conduct creates his own dharma and karma, which control the present and the future; plants, animals and men have souls, some sentient and some insentient; our roots are in heaven; doing one's dharma(duty)by itself is yoga; liberation is the only goal of man; there are many ways and means to attain God and nobody is excluded.
