Description

The Upanishads - Volumes I through IV are published by The Ramakrishna-Vivekananda Center of New York which bases its teachings on the principles of Vedanta, or Hinduism. The Upanishads form the concluding portion and contain the essence of the Vedas, which are the Scriptures of the Hindu faith. They record the direct and immediate spiritual experience of the rishis, the seers of truth, and have been passed down orally through a succession of illumined teachers. They treat the origin and destiny of the soul, the nature of the universe, and the nature of ultimate reality. Schopenhauer once said: "The Upanishads are the most rewarding and elevating reading possible in the world: they have been the solace of my life and will be that of my death." This new translation is both literal and graceful. It has the dignity and flavor of the original. Swami Nikhilananda has based his notes and explanations on the commentaries of Sankaracharya, the great eighth-century philosopher and mystic.
