Episode Summary

FINALLY!... Ya get it? "Finally." As in Death is FINAL. But also as in, I finally dig into the collection of ancient Hindu texts known as the Upanishads. And more specifically, the Katha Upanishad. The story of young Nachiketa and his visit with Yama, the god of death, represents a departure from earlier Upanishads in that it was the first written for the common seeker and not exclusively for the priestly class (the Brahmin cast). And since I'm brand new to this incredibly rich collection of texts, stories, and teachings, I've asked teacher and long-time yoga instructor, Christa Mastrangelo Joyce, to help guide us through. Thanks to her and some excellent lectures on YouTube, this episode offers a friendly and engaging introduction into this foundational and beautiful story.
