CHANDOGYA Upanishad FIRST PRAPATHAKA A Glorification of the Chanting of the Sama-Veda1 First K Hand A The Udgitha identified with the sacred syllable 'Om' 1. Om! One should reverence the Udgitha (Loud Chant) as this syllable, for one sings the loud chant (nd + Vgi) [beginning] with ' Om.'2 The further explanation thereof [is as follows].-- 2. The essence of things here is the earth. The essence of the earth is water. The essence of water is plants. The essence of plants is a person (purusa). The essence of a person is speech. The essence of speech is the Rig (' hymn '). The essence of the Rig 3 is the Saman (' chant"). The essence of the Saman 4 is the Udgitha (' loud singing'). 3. This is the quintessence of the essences, the highest, the supreme, the eighth--namely the Udgitha. 4. 'Which one is the Rig? Which one is the Saman? Which one is the Udgitha ?'--Thus has there been a discussion. 5. The Rig is speech. The Saman is breath (prana). The Udgitha is this syllable ' Om.' Verily, this is a pair--namely speech and breath, and also the Rig and the Saman. 1 The Sama-Veda is the Veda to which this Chandogya Upanishad is attached. * The word Om, with which every recital of the Vedas begins, is here set forth as a symbol representing the essence and acme of the entire ' loud singing' {udgithd). 5 Specifically, the Rig-Veda, the 'Veda of Hymns.' * Specifically, the Sama-Veda, the 'Veda of Chants.' 6. This pair is joined together in this syllable ' Om.' Verily, when a pair come together, verily, the two procure each the cither's desire. 7. A procurer of desires, verily, indeed, becomes he who, knowing this thus, reverences the Udgitha as this syllable. 8. Verily, this syllable is assent; for whenever one assents to anything he says simply '...

Download or read book The Ten Principal Upanishads written by and published by Rupa Publications India. This book was released on 2003-03 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Upanishads are a group of texts in Hindu sacred literature that are considered to reveal the ultimate truth and whose knowledge is considered to lead to spiritual emancipation. In the Upanishads, we find the finest flowering of the Indian metaphysical and speculative thought. They are utterances of seers who spoke out of the fullness of their illumined experience. Upanishad is derived from upa (near), ni (down) and sad (to sit). Hence, the term implies the pupils, intent on learning, sitting near the teacher to acquire knowledge and truth. There are over 200 Upanishads but the traditional number is 108. Of them, only 10 are the principal Upanishads: Isha, Kena, Katha, Prashan, Mundaka, Mandukya, Tattiriya, Aitareya, Chhandogya and Brihadaranyaka. This book is a forerunner in introducing these primary Upanishads to the uninitiated.

Download or read book The Upanishads written by and published by Dover Publications. This book was released on 1962 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This two-volume set contains the famous Max M�ller translation of the classical upanisads that first appeared as Volumes I and XV of the "Sacred Books of the East." It contains the full text, translated into English and annotated, of the following upanisads: Chandogya, Kena, Aitareya, Kaushitaki, Isa, Katha, Mundaka, Taittiriyaka, Brhadaranyaka, Svetasvatara, Prasna, and Maitriyana. These are the most important upanisads, the classical basic documents that have been accepted as authoritative by practically all Indian religious and philosophic traditions. These remarkable mystical and philosophical treatises have not only created the later wisdom of India, they have also played an important part in Western thought. While one many be doubtful of their claimed influence upon the Neoplatonists and the medieval Christian mystics, they still have greatly influenced later developments in Western philosophy, from the time of Schlegel, Hegel, Schopenhauer, and Schelling. Probably written by various authors over several centuries before 500 B.C., they exhibit a remarkable uniformity of purpose: they strive — through parable, proverb, simile, and metaphor, and through a method similar to Socratic dialogue — to arrive at truth without erecting a formal system. Although there have been other translations of the upanisads, this edition of Max M�ller has long enjoyed the reputation of being the most scholarly. Not only does the translation contain the mature reflections of the greatest Indologist and Sanskritologist of the nineteenth century (who was also a profound philosopher in his own right), it also contains his long introductions of more than 250 pages, discussing the position of the upanisads and their value for the modern world. These profound writings are necessary reading for all Indologists, philosophers, and historians of religion. They are also most valuable experiences for the modern reader who is interested in learning about a great field of thought with deep mystical and existential implications.
