Overview

This book presents an annotated translation of an important Indian text-the Mundaka Upaniṣad. It is one of the most respected ancient philosophical works of India and belongs to the category of Vedānta, referring to texts attached to the four Vedas. Its authorship is unknown, and while the exact date of composition is debated, it was likely written a few centuries before the beginning of the Christian era. The central theme of the Mundaka Upaniṣad is the doctrine of the supreme being (Brahman) and its relationship with the inner self (Atman)-the most fundamental and difficult-to-know aspect of human existence. This bilingual edition (Sanskrit/English) includes enlightening commentary by the translator, Roberto de Andrade Martins, who also draws references from other traditional Indian works.
