Résumé

The Secret of Upanishad

The knowledge of Brahman

Upanishad is one of the best divine sayings of the world. It is indeed the crown of knowledge of the Vedas, the mother spring of the philosophies of the Vedanta. The Bhagavad Gita is verily the Kamadhenu (the divine cow that accomplishes whatever we wish) called Upanishad, from which Lord Krishna milked and fed the calf Arjuna. Upanishad is the knowledge of Brahman. Brahma vidhaapnotiparam (one who has knowledge of Brahman only attains greatness) is its explanation. It is only by making the knowledge of Brahman into definite, minute aphorisms that Vyasa Bhagavan presented them to us as Brahma Sutras.

All the knowledge of the sages of the country of Bharat (India) shines in the form of Upanishad. The society of Bharat itself has Upanishad as the root and its experience as the fruit. Upanishad is verily the Ganga of knowledge which arose from the hearts of sages, the great men of spiritual wisdom, while they were in the steady, peaceful state, in solitude, in a state of meditation with concentration and contemplation and while in a state when the fragrance of auspiciousness blossomed.

That Ganga of knowledge will be flowing as long as the world exists. Initially, it was unwritten Vedas; it came leaping from heart to heart and crawling in the 'teacher disciple' tradition. Later, it prospered in the form of palm leaves. Now coming in print, it has spread all over the world, in different languages. The world knows that India means the Upanishad country. All the greatness of this country spreads out as this Ganga of knowledge. All the hearts of those who scoop and drink it become springs of wisdom.
