NINE UPANISHADS
20. Only when men shall roll up the sky like a skin, shall
there be an end of misery, without knowing the Omnicient
Supreme Spirit. In other words, just as it is impossible to roll
up the sky, so it is impossible to be free from miseries (and
attain bliss) without knowing God.

by grace of the Omnicient Lord, sermonised
Sanyasees
(those
who have renounced the world) the knowledge of God who
is supreme, holy and well worshipped and resorted to by the
Rishis (seers).

erly expounded in
Vedanta
should not be taught to one who
has no peace of mind, who is an unworthy son or an unworthy
disciple.

23. These recondite spiritual truths (explained
in
this
Upnishad) undoubtedly shine in the great soul whose devotion
to God is supreme and likewise to the preceptor (teacher of
such knowledge).
