Mundakopanishad Chapter 2: Section 2, Post - 24. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Capter-II. Sectuion -2. Mantram- 9. (Self effulgent Brahmam) & Mantram-10. (All Illuminating Brahmam.) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Here the word ‘karma’ is used in the plural. A controversy has arisen by commentators interpreting the word ‘karma’ as plural. How many karmas are there? Plural implies more than two. In Sanskrit grammar, plural is not dual, it is more than dual. In the English language, more than one is plural. But in Sanskrit, more than one is dual, and more than dual is plural. Here karm??i is plural, which means more than two. Does it mean that more than two karmas are destroyed, or are only two karmas destroyed? There are three kinds of karma—sanchit...

======================================================================== ======================================================================== 28/12/2016. Mantram-s  - 8 to 10 : Description of the sad state of knowledge-less ( devoid of Upasana ) ritualists- Mantram-10. ======================================================================== Ishtapurtam manyamana varishtam nanyac chreyo vedayante pramudhaḥ, naksaya prsthe te sukrte’nubhutvemam lokam hinataram va vishanti (1.2.10). ======================================================================= 1. Many of these verses sound like the verses of the Bhagavadgita, in the Ninth Chapter, where it is said that after enjoying the glories of heaven you come back due to the exhaustion of the merits accumulated by good deeds. Ishta and purta are two types of good deeds that people do in this world. Sacrifices along the lines of the Vedic injunctions are called ishta. Other philanthropic deeds such as distributin...

23/11/2018 Mundaka Upanishad : Chapter 1: Section 1 :  Discussion-12. (Mundakopanishad : Chapter-1 : Section-1 :Mantram-7) Thus, how many things are there? Firstly, there is the Supreme Absolute. Secondly, there is anna, or the potential for the future manifestation in the form of tapas. Thirdly, there is Hiranyagarbha, the vibratory cosmic prana. Fourthly, there is thinking, which is the cosmic thought identifiable with Virat. Fifthly, there is law and order. Sixthly, there is the manifestation of the fourteen worlds. Seventhly, there is individuality, the individuals or jivas, who are propelled towards action, karma. Eighthly, there is the fruit of action. So there are eight degrees : - 1.Brahman, 2. prana, 3.manas, 4.satya, 5.loka, 6.karma, 7.manifestation,8.amrita. Look at this wonderful mantram. It is like a sutra, one thirty-two lettered verse giving us the whole scheme of creation from Brahman to dust. Look at the power of the composer of this m...
