5.0 out of 5 stars Exceptional Translation of Upanishads, December 3, 1997
The book is one of the best English translations of the Upanishads I have read. It thoroughly captures and beautifully preserves the mystical content and meaning of the Upanishad verses. I highly recommend the title to serious students of Hindu mysticism for reading and study. ...Marc

4.0 out of 5 stars Rhadakrishna's work a good east/west philosophical bridge, September 1, 1997
By A. Gregory (Redlands, CA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The actual text is completely in understandable English and lacks a lot of the more technical terms of sanskrit that put off new comers to Hindu philosophy. There are abundant allusions to classical philosophy including Plato, that make the work of interest to students of philosophy

5.0 out of 5 stars A quote from an authority and a summary, April 14, 1998
By J. Huie (Athens,, GA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The Upanishads are the principal Hindu scripture dealing with the struggle for liberation from continued rebirths. Klostermeier in A Survey of Hinduism calls this edition "a good English translation".
