Synopses & Reviews

Synopsis:

The Upanishads are part of the Vedas, the huge body of millennia-old writings that are at the heart of Hindu wisdom. At the same time they represent some of India's highest achievements in world literature. The Upanishads focus on the nature and reality of Brahman or the universal soul.

The path to freedom is narrow, but The Upanishads teach that all can escape karma for true liberation.
