Abstract:
The Upanishads constitute the final section of the most authoritative Hindu scriptures, the Vedas. They are believed to contain the highest wisdom of the Vedas and to be the culmination of their teachings. The Upanishads are dialogues between religious seekers and enlightened teachers discussing the most profound issue of human existence such as immortality, happiness, truth, and liberation. In this book, Dr. Rambachan analyzes ten famous Upanishad dialogues, presenting the story behind each encounter, the significance of the questions and the wisdom of the answers. In doing so, he highlights the spiritual wealth and beauty of one of the most ancient religions in our world and shows how all can benefit from the study of its teachings.
