There
is a difficult sloka / shloka in Katha Upanishad.
Many
Vedic students approached me to get clarified on it. Hence I liked to show the
difficult situation and the right meaning.
It’s
good to have some clarity in it.
Katha
Upanishad 2-5-14
Na
tatra suryo bhati
न तत्र सूर्यो भाति न चन्द्रतारकम्
Here
तत्र tatra doesn’t refer Atma , but it means 'here' in this context - vishya saptami.
Let
us put it in to a dialog ….
