The Upanishads

Book • 1879
The Upanishads are a collection of ancient Indian philosophical and spiritual texts that form part of the Vedas.

They explore the nature of reality, consciousness, and the self.

The Upanishads are known for their profound insights into the relationship between the individual self (Atman) and the ultimate reality (Brahman).

They emphasize the importance of self-knowledge and meditation as paths to liberation.

The Upanishads have had a profound impact on Indian philosophy and spirituality and have influenced various other spiritual traditions.

They remain a significant source of wisdom for those seeking to understand the deeper dimensions of human existence and the universe.
