Description | Among the Upanishads, the Mundaka Upanishad (Mundaka Upanishad in English) is regarded as one the most important. It throws a flood of light on the Jnana Marga (the path of Knowledge) and leads the aspirant to the highest rung in the ladder of Jnana— Brahmavid Brahmaiva Bhavati. That this Upanishad was meant for the Sannyasin (and hence the significant name Mundaka Upanishad) is itself the highest tribute that can be paid to its sacredness. The truth that this Supreme Knowledge which the Upanishad imparts is to be had through inspirational initiation direct from a Guru who is well versed in the Brahma Vidya and who has at the same time had the Brahma Anubhava, is brought out very clearly in this Upanishad. Mundakopanishad (Mundaka Upanishad in English) is an Indian Upanishad, which is one of the important texts of Vedanta philosophy. Its commentary has been written by Adi Shankaracharya, in which important principles of Vedanta philosophy have been discussed in detail. The main goal of this Upanishad is to attain self-knowledge and Brahmagyan. |
