Solution(By Examveda Team)

The literal meaning of upanishad, "sitting near devotedly," brings picturesquely to mind an earnest disciple learning from his teacher. The word also means "secret teaching"—secret, no doubt, because a teaching vouchsafed only to those who are spiritually ready to receive and profit by it.
