QUESTION & ANSWER WITH GURUDEV
POSTED ON: SUNDAY, MARCH 20, 2022
Q: Guruji, what is the difference between Upanishad and Purana? Which should I read?
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar:
Upanishad is pure knowledge, and the Purana is coupled with stories. Do you know what the meaning of Purana is? It means ultra modern, or the newest thing is called Purana. The meaning of Purana in Sanskrit is different from its meaning in Hindi, they are opposite. What we call purana (old) in Hindi is absolutely new and fresh (purana) in Sanskrit. So, the new way of presenting knowledge is called Purana.
Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
