The fifth Upaniṣad is about a diagram, and the diagram is named the Mahācakra, “the great circle”.
To the reader of this collection the subject is familiar: the fourth Upaniṣad of the pūrva-tāpanī of the Rāma-tāpanī was about a yantra, and there the diagram was built in circles from Rāma outward.
Here it will be otherwise: one circle, but with several rings of spokes — six, eight, twelve, sixteen, thirty-two.
Note the two definitions attending it: sārvakāmika — “granting all desires”, and mokṣa-dvāra, “the door of liberation”.
Two fruits are named together and without discrimination. The book has done so before: in the sixth paragraph of the first Upaniṣad, beside each limb of the mantra stood prosperity and immortality.
And the last word: udyoginaḥ — “the diligent, those who apply effort”. From udyoga, “effort, exertion”. Not “the knowing” and not “the holy”: those who work.
