So in this Upanishan, in the Qowpanishan, what is the subject here?

Yama has finally started instructing Natchiketa in Vedantam.

In the question which Natchikata had asked, first he had asked in a general sense,

what happens after death, the secret of death?

That's a question of all humanity. all of us we we would like to know and then he makes it much more sharp much

more precise much more philosophically correct technically correct in this section

where he asks that which is beyond the law of karma, which is beyond

Dharma and Adharmah, good and bad, that which is beyond cause and effect,

which reality which you see, O Lord of Death, that which is beyond samsara, the absolute

reality of this universe. Talk about that. And then Yama says,

it is Oam. All spiritual practices which people undergo are meant for this. For this is the

ultimate truth is going to talk about. And it is the symbol for that is Ome. Now, Oam is a symbol for the two phases of Vedanthar.
