The Mahāvākyas (sing.: mahāvākyam, महावाक्यम्; plural: mahāvākyāni, महावाक्यानि) are "The Great Sayings" of the Upanishads, as characterized by the Advaita school of Vedanta with mahā meaning great and vākya, a sentence. Most commonly, Mahāvākyas are considered four in number, Those statements are interpreted as supporting the insight that the individual self (jiva) which appears as a separate existence, is in essence (atman) part and manifestation of the whole (Brahman).

  • Les quatre mahāvākya sont les « grandes paroles » ou « déclarations fondamentales » tirées des Upaniṣad qui sont censées les résumer. Elles affirment l'identité profonde entre l'homme et la totalité, identité qui sera l'un des fondements de l'hindouisme. Le mot sanskrit mahāvākya est composé de mahānt (grand, vaste, éminent) et de vākya (parole, propos, déclaration). Le Sukarahasya Upaniṣad (XII) énumère ainsi les quatre mahāvākya : (fr)
  • Махавакьи (санскр. महावाक्य; IAST: Mahāvākya) — четыре «великих изречения» упанишад — священных текстов, являющихся основой веданты. Каждая махавакья ассоциируется с одной из четырёх Вед. Говорится, что в каждом из изречений ведантический мистицизм преподносит в сжатом виде основной смысл одной из Вед. Все четыре изречения традиционно трактуются в контексте единства индивидуального атмана с безличным Брахманом. (ru)
