The
Taittiriya Upanishad
Translated
by Alladi Mahadeva Sastry
|
|
Book

LESSON
11
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Having
taught the Veda, the teacher then exhorts the pupil.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Speak
the true. Follow Dharma.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. From
study swerve thou not. Having offered dear wealth to
the teacher, cut thou not the progeny's line. From the
true it will not do to swerve, nor from Dharma, nor
from welfare. Neither will it do to swerve from well-being,
nor from study and teaching, nor from duties to Devas
and Pitris.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. Treat
thy mother as a God; as a God treat thou thy father;
as a God shalt thou treat they teacher; thy guests as
Gods shalt thou treat.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
5. What
works are free from fault, they should be resorted to,
not others.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
6. What
are good works of ours, they should be done, not others.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
7. Whatever
brahmanas are better than ourselves, in their sitting
it will not do for thee to breathe.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
8. With
reverence should gifts be made, never with irreverence
should a gift be made. With liberality should gifts
be made, with modesty should gifts be made. With fear
should a gift be given, in friendliness should a gift
be given.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
9. Now if
to thee a doubt as to a deed, or a doubt as to conduct,
should occur, as the brahmanas there -- who are thoughtful,
zealous, well-versed, not hard (at heart), desirous
of Dharma -- would act in such matters, so there shalt
thou act.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
10. Now
as to the accused: as the brahmanas there -- who are
thoughtful, zealous, well-versed, not hard (at heart),
desirous of Dharma -- would act in such matters, so
there shalt thou act.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| 11.
This is the direction; this the advice; this the secret
of Vedas; this the command; thus shall devotion be, and
thus verily (all) this shalt thou observe. |
