What is the difference between the Vedas and the Upanishads?
Where the Vedas gave a foundation for the direction of Hinduism, the Upanishads filled in the gaps. Written between 800 and 400 B.C., the point of this book was to elaborate on philosophy and how a practitioner might achieve enlightenment. This is also when the idea of karma was written in text.
Which is the best book or article to read Upanishads?
I want to read Upanishads. Which is the best book or article to start? Which is the most authentic and widely recognised translated version? You should read ‘8 Upanishads’ by swami Gambhirananda. It includes the commentary of Sankara Bhagavadpada too. Namaste. I have read all the pimary 18 Upanishands.
Is the Upanishad dead knowledge?
This knowledge is dead knowledge, like knowledge of maths or chemistry. The point of the Upanishad is to convey knowledge of a live entity, in fact the only live entity that you really know of, which is yourself. If you simply read the Upanishads you will not get this live knowledge.
Is Swami Lokeshwarananda’s translation of the Upanishads good for beginners?
He understood my requirement and picked out Swami Lokeshwarananda’s translations. He said they were the best for beginners. Indeed, I found them very useful. It is a wonderful and well-researched summary of the critical Upanishads.
