Brief but crisp presentation.
I did PhD in Kathopanishad.
Now I am delivering speeches.
' Kathopanishad in Moderen Context'
' Why Kathopanishad is more effective in 21st century '
Always take care.
Dr Prakash Sir , I want your contact number plz
Wow..I am deeply interested in the subject..I would be very glad if you share more of it 🙏
Sir, Please post your video lectures on UA-cam 🙏
Glad that so many women academics are teaching Upanishads .
Women were teachers too in Upanishads... Maitreyi, Gargi..etc.
@@kshetra-kshetragnya No women seers but teachers.
Dear Maithili, you make me proud. I bow to your teachers and you also.
People know the story of Nachiket but hardly know about the discussion between Yamadharma & Nachiketa. Your lecture will surely arouse anxiety in the minds of listeners to read and learn more about Atman & Brahman.
In this respect BORI & you have definitely succeeded in drawing one's curiosity about Atman the word which we use in our daily life numerous times without knowing what it is and means.
Very clear and crisp explanation by Dr Joshi. Enjoyed listening to this. Please bring out more such episodes. Bhandarkar Institute is doing a great service to the people. We are very grateful.🙏
Thank you Dr. Maithili Joshy Mam.
Very clear and cogent explanation by Dr. Joshi. I really enjoyed listening to this. You people at BORI are doing a wonderful job.
This is a satellite view on Kathoupanishad, very very high level summary. Nice attempt to explain Atma in a very short amount of time.
Excellent, outstanding interpretation with basis of shlokas of Katopanishath. If I may take the liberty of suggesting Swami Thathvavidananda who has lectured on katopanishath some 85 lectures all in Telugu, if you have access to in you tube, kindly also listen if your time permits.
The narrator spoke so calmly that we could imbibe the most in one session .thanks for giving us the essence in such simple words
The best narration that I have heard so far in this series. Well encapsulated. Many thanks.
Conversation between Yamdev & Nachiketa. Thanks for such video . Dr. Maithili Joshi has explaining in simple words. Best wishes you all who are working on this project. Once again thanks.
Very nice discourse..other Upanishads should also follow. Thanks.
Your brief explanation of Kathopanishad is very absorbig.
Please try to similar explanations on Mundaka, Mandukya, Prasna, Thaitriya, Brihadaranyaka, and Chandogya Upanishad. My respectful regards.
Madam namaskaram! You have explained the subject in a very lucid and understandable language. Your voice is very calm n soothing as well. I would love to hear you again. Thanks a lot.
Excellent explanation of dialogue between Nachiket (Happens to be name of my younger son) n Yamraj. All appreciation to Joshi Ma'am.
Excellent expressions of Atmans Nature
This series of Upanishads is very good. Thanks for this.
Simply amazing interpretation of highest knowledge - Upanishad . 🙏🙏
You have lighted a lamp to wipeout the darkness in the heart.
My pranams to you in the first place.It is very abstract to an uninitiated like me.Being a brahmin something definitely has reached inside of me by your clear diction.
Spelling of Katha Is wrong in title. Kindly fix that. Rest I’m spellbound by the beauty, wisdom and immense intelligence packed in a poetry format within few lines of our scriptures. Marvel of human mind indeed. Thanks to BORI for promoting such wonderful scholars. They’re like a light house for the world, guiding them if they’re willing to open eyes.
Excellent Crispy and Crystal Clear explanation by.May God bless u with a knowlledgeable and Happy life for giving such Precise way of Kathopanishad. Long live. Deergayushmambhava. 😊❤🎉
It is great thing that even at an younger age she is explaining the Upanishads in nutshell ( the ultimate reality). 🙏
Very nicely and clearly explained.
Display of Shlokas from Kathopanishad has resulted in excellence.
Many thanks.

Dr Maithili Joshi explores Kathopanishad for us in this episode. If I may say so, out of five episodes aired till now, this is the best. 🎉🎉
Outstanding presentation. The command of Joshi ji on the Upanishad, identifying key points of the Upanishad, and clear exposition is commendable. A request: Please bring more such videos.
Excellent. This is explained in a very sweet way. It reminds me of param pujya Brahma lin swami shree Madhav tirth and His Guru Param pujya Brahma lin swami shree Vam dev tirth.
Jay Bhagvan. .Jay Gurudev .
Excellent. You have explained in short. In the simple language. 🙏🙏🙏
My honest feedback on this episode: Content & narration wise I have enjoyed this one the most. Such engaging it was that I could disconnect incoming call. Very nice. And thank you for considering suggestion of adding text in the video :) Looking forward to the next one now
Pranams , thanks a lot for this beautiful introduction
veery well articulated with utmost clarity and sincerity. thank you. would like to hear more from your learnings.
I really enjoyed the brief intro to the Kathopanishad in a very lucid and interesting way. Thank you
Excellent in clarity, brevity, pronunciation and capturing the kernel. Thanks beyond measure.
नमस्ते।
At the end of the brief yet a bird's eye view of the Kathopanishad , bahini says ,"thank you."
Is it not we ,who have the good fortune to hear the upanishad from her holy lips ,who should thank her?
Your very demeanor and delivery invokes regards and respects to you .
Dhanyawad.
the distinction between atman and brahman is very important and could be delved deeper into. more elaboration is welcome. excellent talk!
great work
Congratulations to all for bringing out such a gem
Dr Joshi, like the previous speaker has a musical spell-binding voice. Thoroughly enjoyed her exposition.
Another superb video in the series! Commendable job!! I look forward to the future episodes!!!
Very very good madam 🙏
Great episode!!
Very easy to understand explanation of the kathopnishad. Thank you.
Also, i am curious as to why Nachiket/a is referred to as Nachiketas?
Beautiful narration😍
Short talk but well comprehended.
This level of clarity and simplicity in explaining a subject considered complex is possible only with great learning
Excellent articulation!
Thanks for sharing 🙏
नमस्कार डॉ. जोशी मॅडम, कठोपनिषदाने बारा मिनिटात खूप छान समजावून सांगितले. अगदी सार मला समजले. 🙏🙏
So simplified and in fluent words. Enjoyed and more curious now. Thanks for showing text also.
In geets, one shloka has so much concentrated knowledge, just keep wondering, how it was written!
I have read kathopanishad from Chinmaya mission and heard the explanation from Swamy Tejomayanndaji. This explanation is brief and very well condensed, without missing important points.
My pranaams to BORI and madam.
Thank you for this exposition done with simple truths and examples.
Namaskaram!!!
Dhanyavaad madam🙏🙏
Thank you. The format is really good. The talk is interspaced with written text. 🙏🙏 Thank you Dr. Joshi ma'am.. am thankful.
Very informative
Very well explained in simple words regarding atman.
A great job, Dr. Maithili Ji. It's my humble suggestion to state very clearly the subjective nature of Brahman, which is everyone's self. Hence your talk and the listeners' listening ( and my writing this comment and it's reading by any too) are the 'experiences' of Brahman . The understanding of the Upanishad in itself is liberating. In short it is subjective inquiry and not objective. The 'mahavaakyams' declare so.
Well explained,body, mind, intellect Atman and Brahman. Thanks for sharing the story from Katho upanishad
Beautifully explained thanks so much 🙏🙏🌹
very good talk
Thank you !!
Very well explained. Precise and accurate. Thankyou so much.
Very brief and condensed explanation. Glad to have heard this
धन्यवाद मॅडम,अतिशय सुंदर विवेचन
Enjoyed the narration of Katha very much ! Thank you
Very good class
🙏 great
Thank you..
Thank you Madam 😊🙂
Respectfully, it’s said in this talk on Kathopanishad, that Atman enjoys only when it gets united with body mind complex!
Question is: does Atman gets affected by the actions of body mind complex! So far I understand that Atman is just an enabler like a movie screen, a movie can’t be played without screen but it doesn’t matter to screen which movie is played!
If possible please share your thoughts🙏
Sir,
My understanding goes that Athman does not affect by actions of body, mind, just like the Sun does not affect by the clouds.
The very nature of Athman is BLISSFULNESS.
Thanq.
Please correct me if I am wrong.
What the example you said is exactly what Ramana Maharshi said. Atman is like screen. What movie, rain or fire in movie will not effect the scree. It remain as witness of all happening.
As Lord Krishna said in Geeta, one can't function with out me (means Atman) and same time, i am not responsible for your actions.
Namaskar & Hari om

Thank U madam Namaskaram
Khatoupanishat is enclosive to understand Atman
Regarding the course "28 parvans of Mahabharata"-are registered participants eligible to download the youtube lectures?
Thank you 🙏🏼 namaste this was a great lesson
Very well explained 🙏
The state of Atmanishta (being fixed in the Self) , devoid of individual feeling 'I' , is the supreme state.
Ramana Maharishi
Thanks for lesson
Is it KatHopanishad or Ktopanishad ? Please clarify.
Good exposition! Request use of graphics or slides for effective communication. Please remember we live in 21st century.
When the mind is also withdrawn what can become aware of atma
@ Dr. Joshi: Namaskaram! The content of your presentation is very dense! I plan to play it at a slower speed and listen to it again and again, pausing it wherever I need to. I wish you had made this presentation longer, like an hour long, elaborating your assertions, or even adding more sub-topics with examples, to make a common man like me, understand easier. 12 minutes are too short!
I have to hear the whole episode again ….breaking into parts to understand sentence by sentence !
Ma'am, are you CSB?
Thanks
Enjoyed this spontaneous lecture without any distractions..But one doubt..Which is more ancient ? Srimad Bhagavat Gita or Katha Upanishad ?
नचिकेतस् क्या नचिकेता का मराठी रूप है ?
Namaste sister. Really nice. You are a gentle soul. Your eyes reflects it. However pls note that this explanation contradicts Vedas only on the part of soul is God. Pls refer Rigved 10/129/3 where Almighty God clarifies God creates this universe with Avyakt prakriti. As well 10/129/7 where God mentions that He is lord of souls and prakriti. As well pla study rigved 1/169 sukta which says Dwa Suparna sayuja sakhaya which clarifies 3 eternal entities. World is created by God for soul to attain moksha. Also pls study yajurved 40/8 where quality of God is AVRANNAM which clarifies that soul cannot merge with God as it is not peace of God. Otherwise your explanation is very nice. Namaste.
There are hardly any notable translation of Upanishads .....
Can you recommend me any good one??
hara gopal Ji, GE. Pl.first listen to discourses on Kathopnishad. Then note down your doubts. Read the text with word word meaning. Again note down your doubts. But they must your own sincere doubts.
It will take time. Do not fix the time . It is gestation time.
Happy to quote reassuring lines of हस्तीमल हस्ती
प्यार का पहला ख़त लिखने में वक़्त तो लगता है
नये परिंदों को उड़ने में वक़्त तो लगता है
" गाँठ अगर लग जाये तो फिर रिश्ते हो या डोरी
लाख करें कोशिश खुलने में वक़्त तो लगता है
जिस्म की बात नहीं थी उनके दिल तक जाना था
लंबी दूरी तय करने में वक़्त तो लगता है
हमने इलाज-ए-ज़ख़्म-ए-दिल तो ढूँढ लिया लेकिन
गहरे ज़ख़्मों को भरने में वक़्त तो लगता है "
Listen to Jagjit singing same lines.
Wishing you great days for the days to come.
Always take care.
Blessings.

हे माय मराठीत सुद्धां सांगितले तर बरे होईल ही नम्र विनंती.
Great video. The speaker is so cogent and knowledgeable. Reminds me of Gargi!
I wonder how beautiful it will be to learn Upanishads the 'Upanishad' way from these scholars..
प्रणाम!
🙏
Very difficult to understand for me without any background.Explanation should be in slow pace so that the amateur like me can understand the journey up to “ Purush “….this is my first reaction !
🙏🕉️🙏
Please describe upnishad in मराठी 🙏
Bhandarkar institute I think Bhandarkar was Maharashtrian, why all Drs hv obsessions abt English. Even maharashtrain are also intersted in Sanskrit literature..
अगर हिंदी में भी हो तो उत्तम🙏🙏
