The (Katha) Upanishad says that Shraddha entered into the heart of Nachiketa.
Even with the word Ekagrata (one-pointedness) we cannot express the whole significance of the word Shraddha. The word Ekagra-Nishtha (one-pointed devotion) conveys, to a certain extent, the meaning of the word Shraddha.
If you meditate on any truth with steadfast devotion and concentration, you will see that the mind is more and more tending onwards to Oneness, i.e. taking you towards the realization of the absolute Existence-knowledge-bliss.
