Shreya means 'Ultimate Goal'

One of the most stirring Yogic scriptures, the Katha Upanishad uses two marvellous words to help us see which course of action will lead to trouble in the long run and which will lead to detached, loving living. These words apply to every choice, in every circumstance; so they dispel the haze that often surrounds a difficult situation.

Our Katha Upanishad explains it so well and beautifully; so whenever you have a choice, ask yourself this question: “Which is Preya and which is Shreya, the long term good?” Preya is what we like, what pleases us, what offers immediate gratification to our senses, feelings and self-will; without providing us with a lasting benefit in the long term.
Shreya means choosing the best consequences, whether it feels good or not-often forgoing a temporary pleasure for the sake of a lasting benefit.

Whereas Preya means Pleasant.
