Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

What is the Self? What is Brahman? What does the sacred syllable Om truly reveal? And what lies beyond waking, dreaming, and deep sleep?The Mandookya Upanishad, though one of the shortest of the principal Upanishads, presents a profound teaching on the nature of the Self, Brahman, consciousness, and the ultimate spiritual goal.With its twelve sacred mantras, it guides the seeker through the four quarters of the Self: Vaisvanara: the waking stateTaijasa: the dreaming statePrajna: deep sleepTuriya: the transcendent fourth stateThe Upanishad then reveals the profound correspondence between these four states and the four aspects of Om: A, U, M, and Ardhamatra.This book presents these teachings in a clear and systematic manner, gradually taking the reader from the foundational understanding of Brahman and the Self to the deeper meaning of Om and the nature of Turiya.It explores: - The relationship between the Self and Brahman- The four states of consciousness- The four quarters of the Self- A, U, M, and Ardhamatra- The Chaturvyuha framework and its relationship to the four states- Ayam Atma Brahma: "This Self is Brahman"- The fruits of meditation upon Om- The nature of Turiya and the cessation of phenomenal existence- The ultimate attainment described in the Upanishadic teachingTraditional Vedantic perspectives are also presented to help the reader appreciate the depth and significance of these teachings.More than an intellectual study, this book invites the reader to listen, contemplate, and reflect upon the wisdom of Brahma Vidya, and to allow the teaching of Om and the four states of consciousness to become part of a sincere spiritual journey.Whether you are discovering the Mandookya Upanishad for the first time or seeking to deepen your understanding of its profound teaching, this book offers a structured introduction to one of the most concentrated and profound works of Sanatana Dharma.ॐ नमो नारायणाय
