Review: Easy to Read and Understand - When embarking on a journey into the unknown, it is useful to have a guide who knows the way. Swami Paramananda thoroughly understands the Upanishads in his beautifully bound book. There are at least 108 Upanishads. Of those, around 10 are considered to the 'major' ones. Swami Paramananda explains and elucidates three of these: the Isa, the Katha, and the Kena Upanishads. The Upanishads come from the four Vedas. The Vedas are a treasure trove of ancient wisdom. They contain mantras and instructions for use in rituals and sacrifices. They also contain teachings about the ultimate nature of existence, and eschatological teachings explaining the identity of the soul (Atman) with the Absolute (Brahman). These teachings are the Upanishads. The teachings are often couched in charming stories such as the story of Nachiketas. Swami Paramananda clearly explains and elaborates the meaning and importance of each the three Upanishads. Though written in the beginning of the 20th century, it is so clear, well written, and easy to understand, it could have been written yesterday.
Review: A treasure! - A beautifully silk bound book of the ancient Hindu text. The type is easy to read, and there is no annoying bleed through in the pages. It's a treasure.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy to Read and Understand

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Edition - contains 3 Upanishads only
*by J***N on July 11, 2023*

This edition contains only 3 Upanishads: the Isa, Katha, and Kana Upanishads. While limited to 3, It’s a great edition to any collection, and it’s very difficult to find all the Vedic Upanishads in one book. From IEP: “ The Vedic Upaniṣads are widely recognized as being composed during two chronological stages. The texts of the first period, which would include the Bṛhadāraṇyaka (BU), Chāndogya (CU), Taittirīya (TU), Aitareya (AU) and Kauṣītakī (KsU), are generally dated between 700 and 500 B.C.E., and are considered to predate the emergence of the so-called heterodox traditions, such as the Buddhists, Jains, and Ājīvikas. Scholarly consensus dates the second stage of Vedic Upaniṣads, which includes the Kena (KeU), Kaṭha (KaU), Īśā (IU), Śvetāśvatara (SU), Praśna (PU), Muṇḍaka (MuU), Māṇḍūkya (MaU), and Maitrī (MtU), between 300-100 B.C.E” -IEP
