Success in any sphere requires certain abilities. Even to come to experience the Self, it is necessary for one to have certain qualities such as, the ability to discriminate between the Real and unreal, to control the mind, to have mastery over the senses as well as the compelling desire to know the Self. In this episode discussions on these themes are depicted through the incidents from the lives of Vitashoka and Nachiketa.

Vitashoka, the brother of Emperor Ashoka is of the opinion that the charity given to Buddhist monks is used by them to indulge in pleasures of the world. As a result of a conspiracy by some ministers against Vitashoka, King Ashoka orders his execution. Prior to the execution, King Ashoka grants Vitashoka seven days to indulge in various pleasures. It is in the face of death that it dawns upon Vitashoka that one who is constantly aware of his imminent death can never really be carried away by pleasures. This was a unique method adopted by King Ashoka to get Vitashoka to understand and realise the Truth.

In the second story, a young Nachiketa, having been sent to Yama, the Lord of death, gains the knowledge of the Self. Vajashravas, Nachiketa's father, having performed the Vishvajit sacrifice to overcome attachment, is seen to be selecting and distributing in charity the most aged and frail cows. Nachiketa wonders why his father was doing this. It then dawns on Nachiketa that his father was not yet free from attachment, and for this attachment to end his father needs to give up his attachment to his son – Nachiketa. He then goes and asks his father as to who he is giving Nachiketa to. Agitated by this question, Vajashravas replies in anger, “Go, I give you unto Death!” Find out what happens when Nachiketa reaches the portals of Death!

A beautiful episode that narrates the conversation between Nachiketas and Yama, the Lord of Death, from the Upanishad Ganga series.

What happens after death? Are we immortal? What is our real nature?
