Description
In this volume Swamiji expounds 101 important vidyas culled from the twelve major Upanishads, presenting the hidden and secret instructions on the Supreme Truth. A fund of wisdom lies deep within his words, which carry tremendous spiritual force behind them.
Is there a way to realize the eternal Truth which is beyond all thought and word and beyond all phenomena of this world? Yes, and that is by practice of Vidyas as given in the Upanishads. In ignorance we think that this universe is real as it appears to the senses and the mind, that it is separate from the is outside one's self. As long as one maintains this view, one cannot have the real Knowledge of Truth.
The Upanishadadic Vidyas are meditations which act as correctives to this outlook of life, leading to the ultimate goal of self realization.
