Katha Upanishad: Dialogue of Death and Vision of Immortality
Swami Premananda
A short work. But an interesting one. I dunno, I
enjoyed how the evil of the 'sense-perception' was
described; being able to control those senses and
calmly interrogate them appears to be the path to
salvation. I think I agree? It seems reminiscent of
Bhartrhari's poems and the 'ideal' he strives for.
Death is regarded as a temporary state change only
regarded as significant because of our reliance on
'sense-perception.' Once that idea is better managed,
one is able to realize the supreme Self is eternal. I
think I'll read more works translated by Swami
Premananda in the future. Quite engaging without being
esoteric.
