The story of Nachikethass is well known. “The Awakening of Nachiketa” by Dr. Devdas Menon is a delight to read for an aspiring student of spirituality as well as for a seeker who is already established in the Path. The story of Nachiketa is not new to those who have been exposed to Vedanta, but Dr. Menon’s new commentary keeps the reader engrossed in the step-by-step revealing of the Truth, although the subject is beyond comprehension, in the ordinary sense. What makes this commentary unique is the fresh approach it takes where Nachiketa, the twelve-year-old student extraordinaire is sharing with us his experiential reality, firsthand. This is an independent Malayalam translation of the book (Ullunarvinte Nithanthasaannidhyam) by Dr. Sukumar Canada. The preface is by Dr. KBM Namboodirippad.
