deeptha_e Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 What is the meaning of the Sanyasa Suktam? 'Who is entitled to read the Sanyasa Suktam ? 'om na karmana na prajaya dhanena tyagenaike amrtatvam anasuh parena nakam nihitam guhayam vibhrajate yad yatayo visanti vedanta-vijnana suniscatartha sannyasa yogad-yataya-suddha-sattvah ' These lines give me goose-bumps, I am sure there is a meaning for each of these 'Beejas'. I was wondering if Sannyasa Yogam is the highest tattvam? So what happens to people who are leading a materialistic life? Is liberation ever possible for these people? - in the quest for knowledge, Deeptha Echampati Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shailendra_mishra Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 This is the beauty of veda that even if people don't understand the meaning of the sutras, they still feel it. This sutras occur in a section called "Dahara Vidya" of the MahaNarayano Upanishad. The first line says: Neither by actions, nor through progeny and wealth, but by renunciation alone is immortality attained The second line says: This State is far beyond the highest heaven, and the sages perceive it,hidden in the cave of the heart, shining brilliantly therein. The third line says: Those, who have a clear understanding of the principles of science of Vedanta,who have purified themselves by means of the yoga of renunciation,and who are (thus) established in the state of supreme are totally liberated in the Brahman. Read Gita, where Bhagawan talks about karma sanyas and he shows the path of mukti. What is the meaning of the Sanyasa Suktam? 'Who is entitled to read the Sanyasa Suktam ?
