A Good (and quick @ 2.5 hrs) Way to Explore another Faith
I have read the Upanishads and like all such “scripture” or wisdom lit, it can be difficult to stay focused to the end. It is so much better to have somebody read it to you. This audible does exactly that. I can’t speak to the accuracy of the translation, but it seemed to all make sense and I found it more interesting where I could allow the mind to wander a bit around some of the concepts. I also found the commentary helpful (although the attempt to reference other faith traditions was more a mixed bag). Overall it was good, but pretty much as expected for a religious/academic text.
I was given this free advance review/listener copy (ARC) audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
