Teacher of the Upanishads
Shandilya
शाण्डिल्य
The sage of 'all this is Brahman' — who places the infinite Self in the cave of the heart, smaller than a grain, vaster than the sky.
Questions to explore
- How can the Self be both smaller than a grain of rice and larger than all worlds?
- What does it mean to meditate, as Shandilya says, with the conviction 'I shall become this'?
