The Tao Te Ching has a long and complex textual history. Known versions and commentaries date back two millennia, including ancient bamboo, silk, and paper manuscripts discovered in the twentieth century.

he Tao Te Ching is a short text of around 5,000 Chinese characters in 81 brief chapters or sections (章). There is some evidence that the chapter divisions were later additions—for commentary, or as aids to rote memorization—and that the original text was more fluidly organized. It has two parts, the Tao Ching (道經; chapters 1–37) and the Te Ching (德經; chapters 38–81), which may have been edited together into the received text, possibly reversed from an original Te Tao Ching. The written style is laconic, has few grammatical particles, and encourages varied, contradictory interpretations. The ideas are singular; the style poetic. The rhetorical style combines two major strategies: short, declarative statements and intentional contradictions. The first of these strategies creates memorable phrases, while the second forces the reader to reconcile supposed contradictions.[19]

The Brahmavidya Upanishad (Sanskrit: ब्रह्मविद्या उपनिषत्, IAST: Brahmavidyā Upaniṣad) is a Sanskrit text and one of the minor Upanishads of Hinduism. It is one of twenty Yoga Upanishads in the four Vedas.

The Upanishad mainly explains the structure of Om, aspect of its sound, its placement, its beginning and end, and the significance of the Laya (fading away of its sound).Om is Brahman (ultimate reality), asserts the text.The text is notable for stating that gods live inside human body as five Atmans, with Vishnu in the throat, Rudra in the middle of the palate, Shiva in the forehead, Sadashiva at the tip of nose, and the Brahman in the heart. The innermost Atman, states the text, is same as the all transcendent Paramatman, the Brahman pervading everywhere.

Chapter 3 Sutra 1

Sri Yukteswar writes:

The purpose of this book is to show as clearly as possible that there is an essential unity in all religions; that there is no difference in the truths inculcated by the various faiths; that there is but one method by which the world, both external and internal, has evolved; and that there is but one Goal admitted by all scriptures.

The book compares Sanskrit slokas to passages from the New Testament, especially the Book of Revelation.

He states in the introduction: “The book is divided into four sections according to the four stages in the development of knowledge.” The four sections are:

• The Gospel: “…seeks to establish the fundamental truth of creation, and to describe the evolution and the involution of the world.”
• The Goal: “All creatures, from the highest to the lowest in the link of creation, are found eager to realize three things – Existence, Consciousness, and Bliss.”
• The Procedure: “…deals with the method of realizing the three purposes of life.”
• The Revelation: “…discusses the revelations which come to those who have traveled far to realize the three ideals of life and are very near their destination.

Gorakhnath (also known as Goraksanath. early 11th century) was a Hindu yogi, saint who was the influential founder of the Nath Hindu monastic movement in India and Nepal.He is considered one of the two notable disciples of Matsyendranath. His followers are found in India, at the place known as Garbhagiri, which is in Ahmednagar in the state of Maharashtra. These followers are called yogis, Gorakhnathi, Darshani or Kanphata.

He was one of nine saints also known as Navnath and is widely popular in Maharashtra, India and dumgaon, Uttarakhand (where there worshipers do difficult tapasya in himalayas for a month sometimes 6 months or more).Hagiographies describe him as more than a human teacher and someone outside the laws of time who appeared on earth in different ages.Historians state Gorakhnath lived sometime during the first half of the 2nd millennium CE, but they disagree in which century. Estimates based on archaeology and text range from Briggs' 15th- to 12th-century[7] to Grierson's estimate of the 14th-century.

Gorakhnath is considered a Maha-yogi (or great yogi) in the Hindu tradition.He did not emphasise a specific metaphysical theory or a particular Truth, but emphasised that the search for Truth and the spiritual life is a valuable and normal goal of man.Gorakhnath championed Yoga, spiritual discipline and an ethical life of self-determination as a means to reaching samadhi and one's own spiritual truths.

Gorakhnath, his ideas and yogis have been highly popular in rural India, with monasteries and temples dedicated to him found in many states of India, particularly in the eponymous city of Gorakhpur.

Vivekachudamani is a Sanskrit text written by the Indian philosopher Adi Shankaracharya in the 8th century. The title translates to "Crest-Jewel of Discrimination" and the text deals with the Vedantic philosophy of Advaita Vedanta, which asserts that the individual self (jivatman) and the ultimate reality (Brahman) are ultimately identical.

The text consists of 580 verses and is written in the form of a dialogue between a teacher and a student. The teacher explains the nature of the ultimate reality, the path to realizing it, and the obstacles that one may face along the way. The text also emphasizes the importance of renunciation and spiritual practice in attaining liberation from the cycle of birth and death.

Vivekachudamani is considered one of Shankaracharya's most important works and has been widely studied and commented upon by scholars of Indian philosophy. It is considered a foundational text in the Vedantic tradition and has been highly influential in shaping Hindu thought and practice.
