The philosophy of life and death is never ending, we in human forms, keep guessing and our wonderful brains stretches its wings to soar the heights of humanity, far far to the unknown terrains but alas, the fuel is limited to scale the heights, I doubt whether someone will be able to reach those heights? A thought provoking series ended nicely enlightening all of us, thanks Geeta ji for this wonderful work.

I take it as a metaphor, a Brahman made of Brahma's brain means a man who has the maximum knowledge of the mysteries of this universe.

The whole concept of attaining true knowledge of Brahman elevates the mind of a seeker to a level of pure consciousness to be one with Brahman who is 'Beyond the individual mind, intellect and soul'. Thanks, Geeta ji. This Part 6B of the series is a great pleasure to read. I would like to quote: Then, he is liberated from The bondage of life, death and transmigration.

Conversation between Nachiketa and Yama is beautifully presented in this excellent poem basing on scriptural views. Pure consciousness gives us philosophical thrill. An interesting poem is definitely very interestingly and excellently penned.10
