Katha Upanishad - Swami Sarvapriyananda
The Katha Upanishad is one of the primary Upanishads, and is embedded in the last eight short sections of the Katha school of the Krishna Yajurveda. The text is divided into two chapters, each consisting of three sections. The first chapter is considered to be of older origin than the second. The Upanishad tells the story of a young boy named Nachiketa who meets Yama, the god of death, and engages in a philosophical discussion with him about the nature of the self, knowledge, and liberation.
