Sri Shankara’s Commentary (Bhashya) translated by S. Sitarama Sastri
The sruti, for extolling the knowledge treated of, says: Nachikêtam ] obtained by Nachikêtas. Mrityuprôktam ] told by Death. The story] contained in the three vallis. Old] of ancient date, being narrated in the Vêdâs. Repeating] to Brâhmins. Hearing] from preceptors; world of Brahman ] world which is Brahman; attains glory] having become the âtman, is fit to be worshipped.
