🌺Bṛhadāraṇyaka Upaniṣad🌺

This Upaniṣad stands first in size among Principal Upaniṣads;content-wise also this has a unique place. It forms the end part of Śatapatha Brāhmaṇa(शतपथ ब्राह्मण)belonging to Śukla Yajurveda &contains 6 chapters,in prose.
twitter.com/i/spaces/1ypKd…
Since this Upaniṣad consists of adopted chapters from a Brāhmaṇa, it contains some portions which do not possess the essential qualities of a logical nature typical of Upaniṣads. We have to carefully avoid such portions.
twitter.com/i/spaces/1kvJp…
Each chapter of this Upaniṣad is further divided in sections called Brāhmaṇa(s),which in turn r divided into verses. Therefore,a reference to any part of the Upaniṣad is made by denoting chapter, section &verse numbers;for example 2.5.3 indicates chapter 2,section 5 &verse 3.

Dialogue with teen Nachiketa & God of Death, Yam Raj:

Nachiketa: “Some say that when man dies he continues to exist, others that he does not. Please explain.”

twitter.com/i/spaces/1yNGa… Image
Yama, God of Death: “Fools brag of their knowledge, proud, ignorant, blind led by the blind.

What the money maddened simpleton know of the future? They think this is the only world! Because he thinks that, he is born and I take his life again and again.

Some have never heard of The Self, some have but cannot find the ParmAatma. Logic, brings no one to the Self. Yet, when a wise one guides, He is found.

Nachiketa, the man, that hearing from the Teacher, and comprehending, distinguishes matter & Nature from the Self,...
