Notes
The Mundaka Upanishad consists of three Mundakas (foundational joists or timbers, in Sanskrit), the first being concerned with providing some guidance on preparing the vessel for learning about Brahma (Preparation for the knowledge of Brahma), the second concerned with fundamental truths of Brahma (The Doctrine of Brahma-Atman), and the third providing guidance on how to get to knowledge of Brahma (The way to Brahma).
The second and third Mundakas provide a Connection Manual of sorts, while the second Mundaka is a Book of Emanation, that provides a brief window in the cosmic Unfolding of Creation.
