Thirteen Principal Upanishads
Thirteen Principal Upanishads- Original Sanskrit Text with English Translation (Set of 2 Volumes)
The Upanisads occupy a unique place in the history of spiritual and philosophical thought of India, nay the world. It is known that Upanisads form the concluding portions of the Veda, and are therefore called the Vedanta or the end of the Veda. It contains the essence of Vedic teaching. The teaching, being the highest, was imparted at private sittings only to the qualified disciples. Besides, they are the foundations on which most of the later philosophies and religions of India rest.
The Upanisads disseminate secret knowledge by which ignorance is dispelled. They give us both spiritual vision and philosophical thought.
The present Edition contains the (Sanskrit) text as well as the English translation of the Thirteen Principal Upanisads, viz. Bṛhadaranyaka, Chandogya, Taittiriya, Aitareya, Kausītaki, Kena, Katha, Isa, Mundaka, Praśna, Māṇḍūkya, Śvetā svatara and Maitri.
A word Index is also appended to the work to help the researchers to grasp a particular aspect at first glance. It is hoped that the general readers as well as the researchers will be benefited from this new Revised Edition.
