Svetasvataropanishad

- The Knowledge That Liberates

Bag om Svetasvataropanishad

The Svetasvataropanisad is considered to be the most beautiful of all the Upanisads, the philosophical texts of the Hindu religion. In this new translation, Devadatta Kali takes a fresh look, and works from a new premise that the Svetasvatara represents a Saivite (one of the Hindu sects) point of view. This he claims, allows its intended meaning to shine forth. The translation and commentary brings to life the seer Svetasvatara, who from time to time delights in provocation and word play, allowing the reader to share the joy of his liberated vision that all this world is an expression of the Divine. This translation aims to capture the seers ecstatic response to the wonders of creation while pointing the reader towards the even greater wonder of its source. Devadata Kalis purpose in his translation and the commentary is to convey the vibrant immediacy of the Sanskrit original and strip away many centuries of exegetical accretions in order to make Svetasvataras message heard as he intendedas a statement of profound insight designed to guide, inspire, and enlighten.
