The knowledge that was prized the most in ancient India by the rishis is known as Vidya. As a result of this Vidya or Knowledge of Reality, one attains bliss and immortality. It is quite different from ordinary knowledge, which is the product of the intellect. Vidya is a super sensuous and supra-mental experience.
According to the Mundaka Upanishad, one should acquire two forms of knowledge: the apara(lower) and para(higher). The lower consists of four vedas (ritualistic portions) and their six auxillaries. It deals with the phenomenal universe. Lower knowledge is conductive to a man's material welfare but its results are not permanent.
The Higher knowledge is that by which the Imperishable Substance is known. This Imperishable Substance was given the name Brahman and hence the higher knowledge was also called Brahmavidya, the knowledge of Brahman, and this is the knowledge to which was given the general name Upanishad.
