The Upanishads by Swami Parmananda
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Collectively, Vedas and Upanishads form the very basis of Indian philosophy, laying stress on the relation of Self with the Absolute while propounding the idea of a spiritual life. The importance of Upanishads in the canon of Indian scriptures can be well understood from the fact that sacred text of the Hindus "The Bhagwad Gita" is a commentary on Upanishads. Here I am going to hold my views on "The Upanishads" till I read some more and detailed translations. My issue with this version being that the volume had translations of only three Upanishads, while there are estimated to be more than 200 known Upanishads.
