Sohastinobrihas Patir Dhadha to

Om Shanti, shanty, shanty.

So today we'll do the seventh mantra and here we are you have reached it, the climax.

It's the smallest of the Upanishans, 12 mantras only.

And in these 12 mantras, the most important one is the seventh mantra, which we are going to do now.

In fact, in all of Upanishadik literature, probably the seventh mantra of the Manduqqa Upanishad is the most important.

And that's what we're going to study today.

In fact, in this very, very in this text what follows after this

seventh mantra the other mantras and the karikas they are they will discuss

you remember onkara which are an analysis of the om oam and then what will follow is afterwards three more chapters.

Three more chapters.

This is the first chapter.

You know, Mandukya Karik has four chapters.

So three more chapters are basically discussion of this mantra.

It's basically the discussion of the teaching given in this mantra.

So this is really the high point of the Mandukya Karika and of Vedant, I would say,

Advaita Vedant. Let's chant the mantra together, seventh mantra, and then we will discuss it.

Nantaf Pragyam, okay, I'll chant and you follow me.
