Yes it is. I think it's only 12 mantras/verses and it's
powerful!
I just came to it and all the other texts (Upanishads, Gitas, etc...) after the fact and when I look back at what actually brought me to all this it was that experience described in the Kena Upanishad of not knowing but "knowing" It.
