Kathopanishad

6. Never distract from the goal of Self-realisation


Listen Later

Many times, Sadguru has declared that His favourite character from the upaniṣads is the young Nachiketa.
 
In this episode, Sadguru gives us a clear indication of why this is so.  Sadguru says that even though Yama tries to tempt the young Nachiketa using a multitude of techniques and an array of distractions, he could not succeed in tempting him. Anyone else in Nachiketa's position would have yielded long before this point, falling for these temptations.

Sadguru says that if we could all become Nachiketas, (even if we emulate just one percent of his curiosity and his determination), we would be able to cross this sea of māyā easily.
