Upanisads Retold (In 2 Volumes)
Synopsis
In this book, the author has provided a free rendering of Upanisads in a simple and forceful style. He has presented their main ideas, of which he displays a firm grasp, in an intelligent and easily assimilable manner. This is not a mere translation, but as author has explained and commented on them, are also providing an interpretation of their philosophy. The Upanisads are a compendium of various trends of philosophical ideas of the ancient seers of India. They are a blend of speculative approach and revealed insight. As such, their philosophical thought as a whole, regarding, the ultimate metaphysical questions, regarding mind, matter and God, cannot be said to be an anti-rationalistic, anti-emotional, or anti-volitional; but, at the same time, it should not be forgotten that the Upanisads have a further dimension: they are spiritual in nature. Therefore, ideas about God and the absolute are not merely logical concepts, but matters of faith and direct and immediate experience, as the late Professor R.D. Ranade used to say.
