The book ‘The Reflection of Yoga in the Principal Upanisads’ is unique of its kind. It contains the translation of the entire text of four Principal Upanisads. The texts have been further interpreted in the light of Yoga Philosophy with special reference to the Patanjala Yoga sutra, Hatha Pradipika and Srimadbhagavadgita.  Such an erudite exposition of the mantras of the Principal Upanisads in the perspective of Yoga Darsana compels the heart to bliss.

Description

The Upanisads are the source of eternal wisdom. The philosophy is aimed at revealing the true identity of the individual self with the supreme Self. As the Brahmasutra puts, avṛttir asakṛd upadeśāt, the purport of the Upanisads should be repeatedly contemplated to reach the final state of realization. Yoga lays down the practical techniques to attain that highest state of experience.

Hence interpreting the Upanisads in the light of Yoga is a commendable endeavor. Dr. Kakali Ghosh (Associate Professor, Department of Sanskrit, Jadavpur University, Kolkata) has presented the beauty and serenity of Upanishadic wisdom through her translation and critical analysis. I wish that this book will be considered as one of the gems of literary creations. Prof. Madhusudan Penna
