Namaste,

 

I see nothing wrong in that Upanishad, it is showing the truth of

Ajativada. Which was propounded by Gaudapada and others. Even when

Sankara is teaching you will notice that he often uses the

expression..'Means'. So indicating that some idea or practise isn't

the ultimate truth but a means to an end a Sadhana.....ONS..Tony.
