( )Introduction is terrific --lots of helpful back ground information on early Brahmin culture and origins of texts. This book is based on the Controversial aryan Invasion theory formulated by German Professor without any proof..If we just disregard that part, I think its a good book. Note: It is very difficult to translate the sanskrit upanishad into english and in that perspective the author has done a good job. But his basic assumption of disputed aryan invasion theory to be right is something which brings down the rating of this book. The best translation of the major Upanishads to date The original texts of Hinduism translated from the Sanskrit, meditate on the unity of self and the All. no reviews | add a review
