Amritabindu Upanishad (Swami Advayananda)

Amṛta’ brings to mind a vision of heavenly nectar, partaking even a bindu or a drop of which, makes one immortal. Amṛtabindu Upaniṣad expounds the Timeless Truth, realising which one becomes immortal, that is, the eternal, deathless Self.

Upaniṣads are dialogues between the teacher and the student (guru-śiṣya-saṁvād) regarding Self-Knowledge. The names of the teacher and student and the story of how they met are not known in this Upaniṣad. Only the immortal knowledge is reported.
