About this listen
In today’s readings, Swami Ranganathananda begins to explore the charm of the Upanishads and Upanishadic thought. He traces the development of Indian spirituality to ancient times and brings in the evolution of the inward thinking man, as opposed to the outward thinking often found in Greek history.Swamiji draws wonderful parallels of how ancient Greek saw man as a part of a society of community and gave precedence to his socio political identity. Indian Upanishadic thought went a step further and took the Greek dictum of “man know thyself” to become a practical reality in the Indian mind. One that became the wellspring of thoughts on manifestation of man’s true self, his questions on death and beyond, so on andso forth.
