About the Book: For thousands of years, the Upaniṣads have shaped India’s spiritual imagination and defined the foundations of Vedānta philosophy. In this magnificent new translation, Nachiketa Jha brings to life ten key Upaniṣads—Aitareya, Īśa, Kaṭha, Kena, Chāndogya, Taittirīya, Praśna, Bṛhadāraṇyaka, Māṇḍūkya, and Muṇḍaka—together with a lucid, deeply informed commentary grounded in Śaṅkarācārya’s classical exegesis.
