Förlagets beskrivning
Excerpt from Bibliotheca Indica; Collection of Oriental Works Published Under the Patronage of the Hon. Court of Directors of the East India Company, and the Superintendence of the Asiatic Society of Bengal, Vol. 15: Nos; 41 and 50; The Taittaríya, Aitaréya, S ve ta s vatara, Ke na, I s a , Kat ha, Pras na, Mun d aka and Ma n d akya UpanishadsIn the second Valli a general solution is given of the questions What is the last cause of the world, and how do we know of it?The good, in accordance to it, is different from what is pleasant; and on this account man has to choose between either; for from the diversity of their nature both cannot be obtained together. By dis crimination it will be found, that the good is the higher of the two. The knowledge of the things that are pleasant is in fact ignorance, * because it leads to delusion about the true nature of things, viz. By producing the belief, that only this world with its enjoy ments exists, and not another. The result of this ignorance is, that the soul passes from life to death and vice versd. Knowledge, on the other hand, refers to what is good, and its oh jcet is the true nature of the soul of man. It is different from virtue and vice, from cause and effect, different from past, present and future times. The soul then by which man knows, is not born, nor does it die; it is not cause or effect; it is unchangeable, and the visible changes are only changes of the body. It is the one, infinite Brahma, who is incorporeal, great and all-pervading, and although infinite, placed in the cavity of the heart of the living creatures.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
