Excerpt from The Upanishads, Vol. 1: Translated and Commentated; From the Original Sanskrit d104
The translator's idea of rendering the Upanishads into clear simple English, ac cessible to Occidental readers, had its origin in a visit paid to a Boston friend in 1909. The gentleman, then battling with a fatal malady, took from his library shelf a trans lation of the Upanishads and, opening it, expressed deep regret that the obscure and unfamiliar form shut from him what he felt to be profound and vital teaching.
Swami Paramananda
Swami Paramananda was one of the early Indian teachers who traveled to the United States to share the Vedanta philosophy and religion. A mystic, poet, and pioneer in spiritual community living, he journeyed to the Himalayas at a young age, traversing the vast mountain range on foot. Along his path, he encountered many great spiritual figures, deepening his insight and understanding of Vedanta’s teachings.
