Book • 1928
The Katha Upanishad is a philosophical text embedded in the Krishna Yajurveda.
It consists of two chapters, each divided into three sections, and explores themes such as the existence of Atman, the pursuit of Self-knowledge, and the attainment of moksha.

The Upanishad is significant in Hindu philosophy, particularly in the Vedanta tradition, and has been interpreted in both dualistic and non-dualistic contexts.
