Gatha passages

Gatha passages are poetic verses found in ancient Indian scriptures, like the Upanishads and Buddhist texts, that convey spiritual teachings, reflections, and philosophies. They are crafted to inspire mindfulness, moral values, and deeper understanding of life and the divine. These verses often encapsulate profound insights in a rhythmic, memorable form, making complex ideas accessible and easy to contemplate. Essentially, gatha passages serve as poetic summaries or expressions of spiritual concepts designed to guide practitioners on their path toward enlightenment, inner peace, or ethical living.
