by K. Narayanasvami Aiyar | 1914 | 95,228 words
Summary: This book contains the English translation of thirty minor Upanishads.鈥擣ourteen belonging to Vedanta, two are categorised as Physiological, three are Mantra, two are Sannyasa and the remaining nine are categorised as Yoga-Upanishads. These Upanishads are properly defined as the Aranya-portion of the Vedas (most ancient Hindu scriptures) and are so-called because they were read in a forest (Aranya) by those who had given up the worldly life. They collectively belong to the philosophical branch known as Vedanta (lit. 鈥渢he end or final crown of the Vedas鈥�) which is also known as 鈥渢he end of all knowledge鈥�, since the word Vedas means according to its derivation 鈥渒nowledge鈥�.
