Abstract Abstract
The Upanishads are ancient texts from India that were composed orally in Sanskrit between about 700 B.C.E and 300 B.C.E. The Upanishads are the Philosophical religious texts of Hinduism (also known as Sanatan Dharma meaning “Eternal order” or “Eternal Path”) which develop and explain the fundamental tenets of the religion. The name is translated as to “sit down closely” as one would to listen attentively to instruction by a teacher or other authority figure, but Upanishad has also been interpreted to mean “secret teaching” or revealing underlying truth”. The truths addressed are the concepts expressed in the religious texts known as the Vedas which orthodox Hindus consider the revealed knowledge of creation and the operation of the Universe. The word Veda means “knowledge and the four Vedas are thought to express the fundamental knowledge of human existence. These works are considered Shruthi in Hinduism meaning “what is heard” as they are thought to have emanated from the vibrations of the universe heard by the sages who composed them orally before they were written down between c.1500-c 500 BCE. The Upanishads are considered the “end of the Vedas” (Vedanta) in that they expand upon, explain and develop the Vedic concepts through narrative dialogues and, in so doing, encourage one to engage with said concepts on personal, spiritual level 180-200 Upanishads but the best known are the 13 which are embedded in the four Vedas known as 1.RigVeda 2.Sama Veda 3.Yajur Veda 4.Atharva Veda
