Plot
Traveller, set down your load and listen!
I'm going to tell you the story of Svetaketu, a warrior turned wise man who was at the same time the path and the goal.
His story begins in the thick of battle. But amid the slaughter, he was suddenly assailed by doubt.
And the story ends with his awakening and his oneness with all things.
Traveller, venture with him along the path that leads beyond the appearances of this world.
Take the path of no return.
By the wise, who are free from attachment, fear and anger
and who are well versed in the meaning of the Vedas,
this has been verily realised as totally devoid of all imaginations
free from the illusion of the manifold, and non-dual.
Mandukya Upanishad II.35
