This book is divided into five parts:
Composition, authorship, and transmission of the Upaniads;
The historical, cultural, and religious background of the Upaniads;
Religion and philosophy in the Upaniads;
The classical Upaniads;
The later Upaniads.
The chapters cover critical issues such as the origins of the Upaniads, authorship, and redaction, as well as exploring the broad religious and philosophical themes within the texts. The guide analyzes each of the Upaniads separately, unpacking their contextual relevance and explaining difficult terms and concepts. The Upaniads: A Complete Guide is a unique and valuable reference source for undergraduate religious studies, history, and philosophy students and researchers who want to learn more about these foundational sacred texts and the religious lessons in the Hindu tradition.
