108 Upanishads with Sanskrit Commentary of Upanishad Brahma Yogin - 8 Volumes

Upanishad Brahmayogin is the cognomen of Ramachandrendra Sarasvati, a great sannyasin and Advaitin who is credited with having written commentaries on all 108 upanishads of the Muktika canon. His works have been translated and published by the Adyar Library. He was born sivarama of Vadhula gotra in Brahmapuram, a village on the river Palar. This would date to the middle of the 18th century, based on tales of his association, as an older contemporary, with Tyagaraja (1767 1847 CE).

His sanyasa name was Ramachandrendra, but he came to be known for his scholarship by names such as Upanishad brahma yogi, Upanishad brahmendra and Upanishad brahman.
His commentaries on all 108 upanishads of the Muktika canon were the fulfilment of a wish of his father Sivakamesvara. Besides these, he was also the author of independent works such as the Paramadvaita siddhanta paribhasa and the Upeya nama viveka. A prolific author, he annotated the colophons of each of his works with the number of granthas contained in it, presumably to prevent interpolation. On this basis, his works amount to over 45,000 granthas.

Muktika Upanishad gives the list of 108 Upanishads. It is given as the teaching of the Divine Incarnation Sri Rama to his devotee Hanuman. It mentions the list in two places. In the first section (khanda) of adhyaya 1, verses 30   39, the 108 names are given in a metrical form. In the first adhy aya, second section (khanda), verses 1 5, is given the subsets of these Upanishads associated with the five Ved as namely Rigveda (10), Shukla Yajurveda (19), Krishna Yajurveda (32), Samaveda (16) and Atharvaveda (31). The text of Muktika Upanishad can be found in the book, “Samanya Vedanta Upanishads” published by Adyar Library, Adyar, Chennai.

    For the first time in human history the scientist-saint Swamy Ramalinga Vallalar has given us a complete science of immortality and eternity in scientific terms in all its details.
    In the 1860s Charles Darwin published his "Theory of Evolution". But when the American professor Chancey Wright asked him,what would be the next stage in human evolution? He replied that he did not know. But Swamy Ramalinga Vallalar answered that question positively. Not only the next stage in Human Evolution but the final stage was also conducted his experiment in his own body successfully and realized histeachings. He transformed his physical body into a body of wisdom-light. The details are given in these lectures delivered by

    Thiru.R.Kuppusamy.

    Other features covered in these lectures are :
    - Can Humans eradicate the problem of world poverty and hunger?
    - The enlightenment of the human body as well as the enlightenment ofconsciousness.
    - The intelligence born of love as contrasted with that born ofthought which is nothing but matter thiugh subtle.
    - Can humans ever succeed in attaining total self-sufficiency in termsof food, breath and knowledge independently of nature?

  9. Arun,

    Glad to know that you belong the family of this great saint. The picture given is that of Veda Vyasa. Please let me know if you come across any image of Upanishad Brahmam. I will use it instead of the current image.

  12. Hi Arun,

    Good to know... Surprisingly, as per my family tradition as well, my two brothers and I are supposed to represent the 8th direct descendent generation of Upanishad Brahmam :-) And we have at home the Rama deity worshipped by him and his padukas.... Maybe we are related !!! How can we connect??

    Btw, you can find his image on the walls of the Upanishad Brahmendra Madam in Kanchi.....

    Let me know.

    I congratulate you and pray for all the more info.. and guidance for our brother citizens to know more about our rich culture... Many are getting attracted to limited religions without knowing the infinite capacity of our own culture...
