The Katha Upanishad (Kathopanishad) is the legendary story of a little boy, Nachiketa – the son of Sage Vajasravasa, who meets Yama (the deity of death). Their conversation evolves to a discussion of the nature of man, knowledge, Atman (Soul, Self) and Moksha (liberation). This Upanishad is one of the most popular Upanishads for its simplicity and clarity in making the subject matter regarding the Highest truth easily comprehensible. It consists of two chapters (adhyāyas), each divided into three sections (vallis) that contain a total of 119 mantras. Many mantras of Kathopanishad have been repeated in the Bhagavad-Gitä in verbatim/or adapted.
