Preface
More than twenty years have passed since the author came
across Sadhana Panchakam, containing the instructions which Sri
Shankara had prescribed for new seekers inclined to traverse the
Path to Perfection. Captivated by the simplicity of the style and lucidity
of thoughts, the instructions were adopted as the first steps on his
journey. They clarified many truths contained in scriptures, primarily
the Rigveda. Upanishads, Itihas and some puranas. The notes taken
on studying Shankara’ commentaries on Upanishads and other
hymns fortified the search further.
The present book is the result of those notes. It is hoped that
the attempt would be useful for other seekers as well, as it did help him,
whereupon the purpose will be served.
