Prashna Upanishad 6.6Famous
beginner
अरा इव रथनाभौ कला यस्मिन्प्रतिष्ठिताः। तं वेद्यं पुरुषं वेद यथा मा वो मृत्युः परिव्यथा इति॥
arā iva rathanābhau kalā yasminpratiṣṭhitāḥ | taṃ vedyaṃ puruṣaṃ veda yathā mā vo mṛtyuḥ parivyathā iti ||
""The parts are established in Him as spokes in a wheel's hub. Know that Person who is to be known, so that death may not grieve you.""
What This Means:
All sixteen parts depend on the Person as spokes depend on the hub. Know this Person and death will not trouble you.
Going Deeper:
The wheel metaphor again: the Person is the center around which all else revolves. Knowledge of this center liberates from the fear of death.
How To Apply This:
Find your center - the unchanging Self. With that knowledge, death loses its power to frighten.
