Publisher's Synopsis
The Taittariya and Aittareya Upanishads is a book written by Edward Roer and published in 1850. The book is a translation of two ancient Hindu texts, the Taittariya Upanishad and the Aittareya Upanishad. These texts are part of the Vedas, the oldest scriptures of Hinduism, and are considered to be among the most important and influential works of Indian philosophy.The Taittariya Upanishad is divided into three sections, each of which is called a Valli. The first Valli discusses the nature of the Self and the universe, while the second and third Vallis explore the nature of Brahman, the ultimate reality in Hinduism. The Aittareya Upanishad is also divided into three sections, each of which is called a Khanda. The first Khanda discusses the creation of the universe, while the second and third Khandas explore the nature of the Self and the relationship between the Self and Brahman.Roer's translation of these texts is considered to be one of the most accurate and reliable English translations available. The book includes extensive notes and commentary, which provide context and explanation for the complex philosophical concepts discussed in the Upanishads. The Taittariya and Aittareya Upanishads is an essential text for anyone interested in Hindu philosophy and spirituality, and is a valuable resource for scholars and students of religion and philosophy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
