The Upanishads are often considered the most important literature from ancient India. Yet many academic translators fail to capture the workâ€™s philosophical and spiritual subtlety, while others convey its poetry at the cost of literal meaning.

Â
As Western Sanskrit scholars who have spent their lives immersed in meditative practice, Katz and Egenes offer a unique perspective in penetrating the depths of Eastern wisdom and expressing these insights in modern yet poetic language.
Â
Their historical introduction is suited to newcomers and experienced readers alike, providing the perfect entry to this unparalleled work.
