 ================================================================ =============================================================== Saturday, April 02, 2022. 19:30. Post- 5. ================================================================ Chapter-1. Section-1. Mantram-5.  ============================================================== "Tatrapara Rg-vedo yajur-vedah  sama-vedo'tharva-vedah siksa  kalpo vyakaranam niruktam chando jyotisam-iti,  atha para yaya tad aksaram adhigamyate." (1.1.5).  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Very interesting! It gives a blow at the very root of our imagination that the Vedas are the highest knowledge. The Rigveda Samhitas, and everything connected to the Rigveda, such as the Brahmanas, and the Yajurveda, Samaveda and Atharvaveda, are all lower knowledge only, my dear friend. There are four Vedas. The Rigveda consists of hymns, prayers, mantras. The Yajur...

Chapter:-2. Section:-1. Slokam:-3. Etasmaj-jayate  prano  manah  sarvendriyani  ca, kham  vayur-jyotir-apah  prthivi  visvasya  dharini. From Him are born the Prana ( life ), the mind, all the organs, the sky ( Akasa), the wind (Vayu), the fire ( Jyotih ), thewater ( Apah), and the earth( Prthivi) which supports all. From the Supreme Reality explained in the previous mantra, was created the entire world, knowable and knowing objects. Thus here, we have the enumeration explaining that the five elements, the ten senses, the Prana and the mind came out of Brahmam( The Supreme). It is Sastrik declaration that the form--quality of creation has come out of seventeen tattvas. Also, it declares that the entire world of activity (prana), of feelings(mind), of cognition ( sense organs), and the outer world of the five great elements have all the same source in the eternal Realty as explained in the previous mantra, In case, the pyre Exis...

Mundaka Upanishad : Chapter 1: Section 2.6 : Swami Krishnananda

11/07/2019 Mundaka Upanishad : Chapter 1: Section 2.6 Ehy-ehiti  tam-ahutayas suvarcasah suryasya rasmibhir-yajamanam vahanti, priyam vacam-abhivadantyo-’rcayantya, esa vah punyah sukrto brahma-lokah (1.2.6). The Sun’s rays, as the flames of fire, are not dead things; they are consciousness. They speak to you : “Come. Glorious man, here are the flames. Come, come.” The oblations, when offered properly with the recitation of the mantras correctly pronounced, create a situation wherein the oblations start assuming life. We have heard that, in ancient days, divinities used to rise up from the fire, bringing some offering. The nectarine pudding which was brought by a divinity in the sacrifice performed by Dasharatha is one of many instances. The living voice of the flames of fire in the sacrifice, and the glorious rays of the Sun, join together and speak very delightful words. Priyam vacam abhivadantyo’rcayantya : “How blessed you are. How good it is of you to ...
