The first essay in this collection of critical essays, directly takes up the third question of Nachiketa to Yama in Kathopanishad. It analyses the various aspects of the question with reference to 8 commentaries on Katha. The explanations given by the Mother Sri Aurobindo seems quite reasonable and acceptable. The other essays included are: Fourfold Order of Knowledge, The Essence of the Teachings of Sri Aurobindo, explanations of “Brahmanosya Mukhamasit”, Gunaless, without Guna and Beyond Guna of the Gita and comparison of two poems with the same title “Binnahake Bayillavayya”.
