In our last class, we started the meaning of the Shanti Patha, also called Peace Chant. This Taittiriya Upanishad belongs to the Krishna Yajur Veda.

That is what is Sama Veda. Most of the mantras, probably 99% of the mantras of the Sama Veda are bodily lifted from the Rig Veda. But they are set to music. How did they do it?

In our last class we were discussing about Upasanas and we asked certain questions also. Can we do away without Upasana? No. Upasana is the Dwara, the doorway to Brahman. Just as the doorway to youth is adolescence, childhood for a baby, so also there is no way. It is a matter of gradual growth called evolution. So we cannot do away with Upasanas.

Sri Ramakrishna is explaining regarding the incapacity of the mind to know Brahman. This is one of the most important matters for us to understand. We can become one with Brahman, but we cannot define Him. It is impossible. Why is it impossible? Simple reason. Any instrument which is limited cannot give us information about the unlimited.
