A Study of Taittiriya Upanishad
The Upanisads incorporate the cream of our ancient knowledge and philosophy regarding the Brahman, the Atman & the world. The importance of these spiritual texts has been well-recognized by scholars worldwide. Great savants of Indology have made general study of the principal Upanisads, but, the concentrated and detailed study of individual Upanisads from all aspects is a desideratum.
The present book envisages the study of the Taittiriya Upanisad, one of the ancient and the most important Upanisads belonging to the Krsna Yajurveda recension. It aims at the comprehensive and deep evaluation of the text, from all the different aspects like the philosophical, metaphysical, ethical, social, linguistic, literary, and cultural standpoints. It not only contains for the first time the details regarding sixty commentaries on the text but also the comparative survey of opinions and interpretations of Acaryas on the passages of the Taittiriya Upanisad. The book can well fulfill the requirement of in-depth and comparative research work on this particular Upanisad.
