Sankhya Upanishad O Charjapad by Rajat Pal [Hardcover]
Sankhya Upanishad O Charjapad by Rajat Pal [Hardcover]
In ancient India, we observe a geographical distinction in religious practices. Philosophies like Samkhya, Buddhism, and Jainism all emphasize moksha or liberation. While the hymns, Brahmanas, and Aranyakas of the Vedas include prayers to deities, the Upanishads focus on the pursuit of knowledge. This pursuit was primarily centered in regions like Mithila and the Kingdom of Kashi in eastern India.
Later, the idea of liberation also found expression in the Charyapadas of Bengal. This book seeks to explore and understand the philosophy of liberation that developed in eastern India. Additionally, it attempts to uncover the geographical location of the realm where Nachiketa, from the Katha Upanishad, journeyed—whether it was heaven or the abode of Yama (the god of death).
