The Upanishads include some of the most beloved and illuminating stories from the vast literature of India's Vedic tradition. Adapted from the original text, these twelve tales tell the story of enlightenment in simple, poetic language that will appeal to both adults and children. The Upanishads express the full glory of the inner Self. When one has realized the Self, everyone and everything becomes more near and dear, and one flows in universal love.
Introduced me to hindu traditions. I felt very positive reading this. It is very clear and easy to grasp. Throughout, it emphasizes the 'self'(atman) as one with creation(Brahma). "Everything is Brahma" it repeats. The photos are absolutely stunning.I would read it again after studying other philosophies like madhyamika mahayana and kashmiri shaivism.
