Nagler; Glossary; Notes; IndexAmong the oldest of India's spiritual texts, the Upanishads are records of intensive question-and-answer sessions given by illumined sages to their students - in ashrams, at family gatherings, in a royal court, and in the kingdom of Death. The sages share flashes of insight, extraordinary visions, the results of their investigation into consciousness itself.The Upanishads have puzzled and inspired wisdom seekers from Yeats to Schopenhauer. In this best-selling translation, Eknath Easwaran makes these challenging texts more accessible by selecting the passages most relevant to readClassics of Indian spirituality.HinduismSacred booksSpiritual lifeHinduismSanskrit literatureTranslations into EnglishHinduismSpiritual lifeHinduism.Sanskrit literature294.5/9218Eknath Easwaran1910-1999.673794Nagler Michael N525617MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910971613603321The Upanishads4370439UNINA
