Which Upanishad describes the philosophical dialogue between Yajnavalkya and Maitreyi? Correct Answer Brihadaranyaka

  • The dialogue between sage Yajnavalkya and Maitreyi, his wife, in the Brihadaranyaka Upanishad is a classic exposition of the significance of Self and the love between the individual and things.
  • It explains with many analogies and metaphors the concept of Self, atman, as the ultimate reality, emphasizing the value of renunciation without which none can go from truth to The Truth of the truth.
  • It tells us that unless we get detached from the world of truth, the world of desires, we cannot understand the world of the Truth of truth. These conversations are very famous philosophical expositions containing the essence of atmajnana gifted to the world by this Upanishad. These teachings bear not only the testimony of conviction but also rationality.
