Abstract:
It is often believed that ‘teacher professional development’ is propagated, researched and implemented by western researchers in 19th century. Contrary to these beliefs, a study of ancient Indian text Upanishads (c.800 BCE - c.500 BCE) reveal that teacher professional development practices were a part and parcel of ancient Indian education system. Present research traces a number of evidences from three Upanishads namely Chhandogya Upanishad, Prasna Upanishad, and Taittiriya Upanishad to prove that a majority of modern day teacher professional development practices were prevalent in ancient In

This paper explores how the knowledge of the <em>Upanishads</em> and the works of Adi Shankaracharya form the foundation of the protagonist&rsquo;s spiritual odyssey in Raja Rao&rsquo;s novel, &lsquo;<em>The Serpent</em> <em>and the Rope&rsquo;.</em> This novel emphasizes key spiritual principles such as discrimination (<em>nitya-anitya Viveka</em>), detachment, and an intense yearning for liberation (<em>moksha</em>).

Abstract:
The main objective of this article is to unveil the core themes of Upanishads in W. B. Yeats’s poem “Sailing to Byzantium”. Upanishads, the foundational texts of Vedic philosophy, propound the nature of gross reality, self and its relation with the eternal reality. These concepts find their reflections and intersections in “Sailing to Byzantium”. Both of them also propel the limitations of this gross world and the bliss of transcending the confinements of metempsychosis. Besides, they project that beyond the realm of ephemeral mask lies the effulgence of the cosmic consciousness which can be o

Abstract:
This article explores the dynamics of the esoteric (para) and exoteric (apara) knowledge that the Mundaka Upanishad proclaims in its mantras. The domain of Vedic knowledge is exoteric, and the Vedic sacrificial rituals are always for earthly glories and satisfactions. Therefore, their main quests always remain for the external manifestations. Unlike this, the Vedanta refers to the philosophical part of Veda. It mainly concerns for cosmic speculations, and aims to realize the transcendental ultimate reality. In this way, the Upanishads which form one of the tripartite pillars of Vedanta postula

Abstract:
The Aranyakas are important texts of Vedic literature, positioned as the final section of the Brahmana texts and are considered the precursor to the Upanishads. Their name is associated with 'Aranya' (forest) because they were studied by ascetic sages in the forest during the Vanaprastha ashram. These texts elaborate on the spiritual and philosophical aspects of sacrifices (yajnas), with in-depth analysis on subjects like prana-vidya (science of life force), atma-tattva (self-realization), the cycle of time, brahma-vidya (knowledge of Brahman), and esoteric worship practices.

Abstract: this article considers the special relationship of the Tathagata with “speaking truth”. Valuable material for studying this relationship in detail we take from the Sutras of “Digha-Nikaya”. And in these parts the Tathagata is extremely similar to a certain character of early Upanishads (“Brihadaranyaka Upanishad” and “Chandogya Upanishad”), who called brahmishtha. This character is mysterious, in the later Brahministic and Hinduistic traditions it is not fixed.

This paper tries to explore jivātmās' (souls' or individual selves') spiritual journey from bondage to liberation for “Shāntih” (Peace), especially represented by the symbol of water in T. S. Eliot's poem The Waste Land from the viewpoint of the principal Upanishads. The ultimate goal of life is to attain "Shāntih," Brahma, or moksha (liberation). This is symbolized through the search for water in the poem. Thus, the search for water is the search for "Shantih." The poem is influenced by the fundamental concept of the Upanishads that it is impossible to attain moksha without breaking the ignor

Abstract:
This thesis examines the reasons why Walt Whitman has been a "puzzle" to literary critics for well over a century. It shows the correspondence between Walt Whitman's work and the mystical tradition of East as also interpreted by American Transcendentalists. Enquiry into "self" is the central theme of most of Whitman's work. Two aspects of this enquiry have been investigated in this thesis and compared with the Upanishads: the development of self; and the use of contradictions as a means of conveying meaning. Both aspects support the view that Whitman displays a worldview not in accordance with

This research was stimulated by pastoral concerns regarding the high rate of suicide in the South African Hindu community. On the one hand it was found that traumatized individuals contemplating suicide were woefully ill-equipped with helpful religious guidelines and on the other it is known that the primary and authoritative scriptures of Hinduism possess a wealth of information that can promote healing. This work uses the Taittiriya Upanishad (3.10.5) to address this challenge. The early Vedic writings are not systematized nor are they fully explicable except through commentaries. This resea

The Katha Upanishad and Plato’s Phaedo are two texts are both part of a philosophical and religious canon that form existential cornerstones in two respective systems of thought.

Furthermore, they show striking similarities as to how they express views of ultimate value. The parallels that can be drawn between these texts do not end there, however.
