Taittirīya Upaniṣad
The Taittirīya Upaniṣad is one of the key texts that offers profound insights into the nature of the Self (Ātman) and the ultimate reality (Brahman). By learning to recite this Upaniṣad, we are not merely engaging in an intellectual exercise but are also tapping into a living tradition of spiritual exploration. The sound of the Sanskrit recitation itself carries a transformative power, aligning the reciter with the vibrations of the universe, and deepening one’s inner journey.
