The Upanishads

The Upanishads (meaning 'to sit with a guru') is a collection of late-Vedic texts about enlightenment and acquiring mystical knowledge. These seminal texts shed light on the evolution of thought that established the key tenets of Hinduism and defined the ways in which the religion is practised today. Fascinating and filled with wisdom, the Upanishads deal with topics ranging from philosophy to consciousness and explore the relationships between humans, cosmic realities, and rituals. First published in 1919, this edition, translated by the esteemed Swami Paramânanda, will impart great wisdom about the spiritual self and guidance on understanding the true meaning of life.
