Description
The Mandukya Upanisad is the shortest amongst the principal Upanisads having just 12 mantra-s but presents the quintessence of the entire Upanisidik teaching. It analyses the entire range of human consciousness in the three states of waking (jagrat),dream (swapna) and dreamless sleeo (susupti) which are common to all men.It asserts unequivocally that the Absolutely Reality is non-dual (advaita) and attributes (nirguna). It has a unique method of approach to Truth.It provides symbol for meditation in the mono-syllable AUM-comprising of three sounds A,U,M, detailing it's philosphical implications.According to Muktikopanisad,it forms the epitome of all the hundred and eight Upanisad-s which have been accepted as authentic. - from Amzon
