5.0 out of 5 stars Max Muller's Upanisads, June 7, 2001

By	Rosario Diaz Ahumada "rdamail" (Cuernavaca, Morelos, Mexico) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Upanishads, Part 1 (Paperback)

Either if you are doing research on the area or are just looking for spiritual development, this is the book you should buy. Beautiful Upanisads from India, Himalayas of the soul as they have been called, are full of enchantment and inspiration for the one who reads them. Oneness of the soul with god, oneness of the people within them and with the earth, the creative power of sound, eternity of the soul and reencarnation are some of the themes touched by the Upanisads. I am a Hindu Philosophy student and among all of the translations made of the Upanisads, I have found these to be the best. Max Muller writes in a very comprehensive way things that regularly are rather complicated, without loosing a bit of the poetic and mystical content of the Upanisads.
