The Pavamana Mantra, 'Asato Ma Sadgamaya', is found in the Brihadaranyaka Upanishad, among the oldest of the Upanishads. In three sublime lines it sets out the entire aspiration of the spiritual seeker — to be led from the unreal to the real, from darkness to light, from death to immortality. For its beauty and depth it has become one of the most cherished prayers of Hinduism, recited the world over.
✦ शास्त्रों में वर्णित
Sages hold this prayer to be the very voice of the soul's longing — that beneath every human desire lies this one cry to pass from illusion to truth, darkness to light, and death to the deathless; to chant it sincerely is to turn the whole being toward the eternal.
