A note about Trishanku: Trishanku was a virtuous king and a sage. The legend says that he wanted to go to heaven with his body. Rishi Vishwamitra agreed to his request. While descending to heaven Trinshanku's approach was stopped by Indra the lord of heavens. As he started to come down Vishwamitra stopped him from doing it. Finally as a compromise Vishwamitra created a new heaven for him in southern sky away from Indra's domain where to this day he stays. In Astronomy Trishanku refers to constellation of crux.

Beautiful tribute to a great soul. Your notebook has served the rightful purpose. Thank you.

“ I am the stimulator of the tree of Universe. My fame (glory) is high as the peaks of the mountain. High and pure am I like the essence in the sun; I am the power and the wealth, effulgent with intuition; Intelligent, imperishable and undecaying am I- This is the sacred recitation of Trishanku after he realized the truth.” A great tribute, wlil you please explain who is Trishanku? Is he the trio of Shiva, Vishnu and Brahma?

I also got excited when I saw the title about a Tribute to Maya! I laughed and thought, this will be amazing, a tribute to humanities bane (maya-Sanskrit! ! ! !) Now that is your assignment, do it with grand refinement! Do a tribute to the sanskrit -Maya do it good, do be a liar (ly-yah)

Thanks for that Savita! I love all I hear from the Upanishads I believe he saw him self as creator of all by his thoughts and also saw himself in the quiet power of being Nice comparison you did for us Namaste
