From the full, comes the full. Remove the full from the full and what remains? The full. Thus begins the Isha Upanishad, one of the most profound ancient books of faith. Mahatma Gandhi had famously said that if all scriptures happened all of a sudden to be reduced to ashes and only the first verse of the Isha Upanishad was left in our memory, Hinduism would live for ever. But this Upanishad goes beyond all faith, all religion to help all people look within and without themselves to answer the questions that have swirled in and round them since the dawn of civilization. That is the spirit in which Pritish Nandy, renowned poet, painter and filmmaker, has produced this sparkling new translation from the original Sanskrit, and Sunandini Banerjee, accomplished artist and designer, has illustrated it with her unique graphic art. While the text reveals man’s relationship with nature and God, the artworks explore it, alluding to creations both divine and human. Together they manifest the thread that connects all that exists, together they chronicle mankind’s search for the true meaning of life. There is no metaphysics here, no religion. Just pure, simple, deep wisdom.

Download or read book Isha Upanishad With the Commentary of Shankara written by Shraddhesh Chaturvedi and published by . This book was released on 2021-07-30 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Isha Upanishad is the first among eleven principal Upanishads on which Shankara has written a commentary. He shows that the performance of actions cannot remove our ignorance. Knowledge alone can dispel it. I have done a comprehensive analysis of this fact in the preface due to its importance. If we are attached to the results of our actions, the scriptures prescribe the performance of rituals; however, if we seek liberation, it is the path of knowledge that the scriptures prescribe. Our ignorance hides the ever-present non-dual reality as the clouds hide the sun that creates them by absorbing the water. Self-knowledge destroys this veil of ignorance. In this state, one identifies with the universal oneness, where there is no second. Hence, there cannot be any hatred, illusion, or disappointment.
Download or read book I Am That Talks on the Isa Upanishad written by OSHO and published by Jaico Publishing House. This book was released on 2023-06-20 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Osho goes into the depths of life’s eternal questions while speaking on the sutras of the Isa Upanishad—the most ancient words of wisdom available to mankind. For over 35 years, Osho spoke to international audiences of seekers, addressing their essential questions and concerns. The international press calls him “A 21st Century Prophet” and “an oracle of modern times.” His books and audio lectures are international bestsellers. Osho himself says that he is neither a prophet nor a philosopher; he is simply sharing his own experience. The Sunday Times of London described him as “one of the 1000 makers of the 20th century” and American author Tom Robbins has called him “the most dangerous man since Jesus Christ”—both comments reflecting the profound influence of his revolutionary approach to the science of inner transformation. Spoken with authority, clarity, sharpness and humor, his insights address both the timeless and timely concerns that tend to escape our notice in the clamor and overload of daily life.

Download or read book The Upanishads II Kena And Other Upanishads written by Sri Aurobindo and published by SriAurobindoAshram Publication Dept. This book was released on 2006 with total page 459 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Upanishads has now been expanded and brought out in two volumes, with much new material published for the first time in book form. The single volume The Upanishads has been discontinued, with all its content included in the two new volumes, each available as an independent book. The Kena Upanishad is concerned with the relation of mind-consciousness to Brahman-consciousness , writes Sri Aurobindo in his commentary on this work. The material world and the physical life exist for us only by virtue of our internal self and our internal life. According as our mental instruments represent to us the external world, according as our vital force in obedience to the mind deals with its impacts and objects, so will be our outward life and existence. Along with Sri Aurobindo's final translation of and commentary on the Kena, this book includes his translations of six other Upanishads as well as several other translations and commentaries, and essays such as 'The Philosophy of the Upanishads'.
Download or read book ISAVASYA UPANISHAD written by Swami Chinmayananda and published by Central Chinmaya Mission Trust. This book was released on 2015 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: See God in all. To Him belong all know, renounce and rejoice Seek not to possess, nothing is yours. This short spiritual treatise of just eighteen mantras has inspired great minds for ages. Chapters in Sukla Yajurveda, the teachings here point out the Self-the divine essence-in every one of us. A crisp summary of the Vedanta, this Upanisad shows us the way to rise above all our attachments to the finite objects of this world. The glittering sense objects, the sweetest emotions and even the lofty ideals of human life are but a golden disk, covering the face of the Truth. We must avoid all traps of wonderful work (karma, avidya) or charming thought patterns (upasana, vidya) and seek the pure knowledge. The holy text permits the use of a healthy blend of lower spiritual practices as a stepping stone to the hightest realization. The scripture concludes with some sublime prayers of an advanced seeker.

Book excerpt: The ancient seers, or rishis, of India left behind them mysterious and often obscure scriptures which contain the essence of Eastern spirituality.

He also describes practical meditation techniques for the modern man who finds it difficult to silence his mind, and explains the science behind his own dynamic meditation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, first published in 1962, is an analysis of the history of the philosophy of a country that has never distinguished philosophy from religion. Indian philosophy is not merely metaphysical speculation, but has its foundation in immediate perception. This insistence upon immediate perception rather than abstract reasoning is what distinguishes the Indian philosophy of religion from philosophy as Western nations know it.
Download or read book The Message of the Upanishads written by Swami Ranganathananda and published by Advaita Ashrama (A Publication House of Ramakrishna Math, Belur Math). This book was released on with total page 762 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Message of the Upanishads is a study, verse by verse, of three of the principal Upanishads, namely, Isha, Kena and Katha, in the light of modern thought and modern needs. Though constituting a small portion of the total Upanishadic literature, they yet contain a lucid exposition of all the essential ideas of this immortal literature. The spiritual insights of the Upanishads are an exception to the tyranny of time. Subsequent scientific advances have not only affected their truth-value but have, on the contrary, only helped to reveal the rational basis of their insights and enhanced their spiritual appeal. This is no wonder, because these insights are the products of an equally scientific investigation into a different field of experience, namely, the world of man’s inner life. Published by Advaita Ashrama, a publication house of Ramakrishna Math, Belur Math.
