    Brhadaranyaka Upanisad- Text in Sanskrit and Translation with Notes in English from the Commentaries of Sanakaracharya and the Gloss of Anandagiri

     

    "The dawn is the head of the sacrificial horse', is composed for the sake of those who wish to liberate themselves from the world, so that they may acquire the knowledge, that Brahman and the soul are the same, a knowledge, by which the liberation from the cause of the world is accomplished. This knowledge of Brahman is called Upanishad because it annihilates the world, together with its cause (ignorance) in such as possess this knowledge: for this is the meaning of the word Sad, proceeded by Upani. A work that treats the same knowledge, is also called Upanishad. The above-mentioned Upanishads, which contain six chapters, are called Aranyaka, as being spoken in a desert, and Brhad (great) to its extent.

    • PREFACE

      The chronology of the Old Testament has influenced almost all the speculations of Oriental scholars regarding the possible date of the Vedas and the Upanishads. It is very difficult to say anything with positive confidence on this subject, but this much is certain, that the Upanisads, at least the ten principal ones, are not in any way posterior to the Vedas. The argument that a philosophy like that embodied in the Upanisads cannot exist side by side with the nature worship of the Vedas, loses its force when the Suktas of the Veda are regarded as symbolic only of those esoteric truths which were taught through the Upanisads to the select few. Zymology helps the solution of many a riddle over which philology has either sat in despair or which it has understood only to misunderstand. The history of all the great religions of the world shows, that there is nothing inconsistent in the possible existence of a sublime philosophy with the empty formalities of popular religion. And this circumstance in itself is an indirect argument against the later origin of the Vedas and the Upanishads.
