Desire is the root of all knowledge, action and thinking. We believe that success is to achieve all we desire. We believe that success is to achieve all we desire. Yet most of us do not succeed in fulfilling most of our desires, despite sincere efforts. The eighth chapter of the Chandogya-upanishad drives home the fact that a state of total fulfilment of desire (satyakama) is attained through Brahmavidya – the knowledge of The Ultimate Truth that results in Self-realisation whereby one remains untouched by any situation in life. Indra, The King of heaven, lived for 101 years in the hermitage of Prajapati, the Creator, in order to gain it. A life of self-control and meditation on the heart-space was the means taught, and total freedom and fulfillment, the goal achieved. Swamini Vimalananda's appropriate notes will surely add a new dimension to our understanding to this text.
