Item Type: Hardback
Publisher: Ramakrishna Vivekananda Center
Swami Nikhilananda's English translation of three of the major Upanishads - Svetasvatara, Prasna, and Mandukya - offers a scholarly, yet readable version of the sacred texts of ancient India. The Upanishads form the foundation of Hinduism and describe the ultimate objective of life - the liberation of the soul from the bondage of the phenomenal world. The Upanishads deal with the timeless questions. What is the cause of the Universe? Where do we come from? By what power do we live? What is the nature of the Ultimate Cause? Swami Nikhilananda's clear and insightful writing combined with notes and explanation based on the commentary of Sankaracharya, the great eighth-century saint of India, will help the spiritual seeker delve into the meaning of these spiritual treasures. This second of four volumes also contains an introduction with a general outline of the ethics of Hinduism. Hardcover. Pages 400
