That's an ideal analogy- Just as that Sun gives light to one and all alike whether pure or impure, good or bad, in the same way Brahaman is always pure and consistent. Those who realise this, attain Him. Thanks. Those who realise the true nature and purity of Brahman Truly, enjoys everlasting peace and bliss.
The analogy is given in the Kathopanishad itself, to make us understand the essence of Brahman. Generally, the subject of Brahman or Atman is beyond human comprehension and even for the best of scholars, it is difficult to explain or give a direct definition. Only through Similies, some idea is conveyed.
Thank you for your steady and generous support throughout this Vedic Series. I am ever grateful to you, Rajnish ji. Stay blessed and happy always.

To Nachiketta, Yama, the king of death, declares about Brahman which has been so nicely inscribed in this poem by you. It may be cited.. Brahman is the Inner Self The ‘Antaraatman'! This inner Self is seated in all beings. Yet, an ordinary man is unable to perceive it. The subtle Soul or Self is hidden In the innermost core of your heart. Only through the practice of discrimination, One is able to recognise and know the Self. Beautiful poem.
