Paramahamsa is one of the 31 Upanishads attached to theĀ Atharvaveda. It is classified as one of the Sannyasa Upanishads. The Upanishad is aĀ discourse between the Hindu god Bramha and sage Narada. Their conversation is centered on the characteristics of Paramahamsa (highest soul) Yogi. The text describes the monk as a Jivanmukta, a liberated soul while alive, and Videhamukta is liberation in the afterlife. The Upanishad, in its opening and concluding hymns,Ā emphasizes the primacy of infiniteness of the Brahman and the Universe, with theĀ Brahman representing the infinite. The Upanishadās theme is presented in four hymns as an explanation by Lord Brahma to Naradaās query on the aspect of the path of the Paramahamsa Yogis.
