REBEL TO REVELRY TALKS

with Phil Gatt

KAIVALYOPANISHAD

with Shanker Madan

Kaivalyopanishad belongs to the Atharvana Veda. Spun from pure philosophy, it is faithful to the tradition of Upanishads, where a student approaches a Teacher demanding knowledge.  

Here the student Asvalayana, a learned teacher of Rig Vedas himself, approaches the Creator (Brahma). The Teacher, does not beat about the bush and reveals with minimum words the subtle techniques of attaining the state of Self realisation.

This reading is based on commentaries by Swami Chinmayananda and his talks during a spiritual retreat held exactly 20 years ago in Perth in April 1991.
