Katha Upanishad

The Katha Upanishad is an ancient Indian scripture that explores the nature of the self and ultimate reality. Through a dialogue between a young seeker, Nachiketa, and the Lord of Death, it discusses how understanding our true self (which is beyond body and mind) leads to spiritual freedom. The text emphasizes inner knowledge, self-awareness, and detachment from worldly desires as keys to realizing eternal truth. Essentially, it guides us to look inward to find lasting happiness and liberation from cycle of birth and death.
