The Upanishads (Nikhilananda, tr.)
The Upanishads are among the most profound works of the human imagination. I ordered the four-book set of the Upanishads; it came quickly and in pristine condition. I would most definitely order from Vedanta.com again!
This should be a must read but sadly not very well known in our western world
This printing is beautiful, and of a very high quality. I would recommend it to anyone who wants a complete set of the 10 principle Upanishads.
Swami Nikhilanada's writing is clear, concise and easily understood. The translation is easy to read and understand. An excellent resource book.
I have purchased all four volumes but have completed reading just the first. Nikhilananda has performed a truly great service to this Western student of Vedanta. His introductory discussion on the nature of Brahman is as deep as it wide, assisting one to understand the nature of the Real through the eyes of the Upanishads. The inclusion of Shankaras commentary is helpful but overwhelming at first. If you purchase this set, please also consider Nikhilanandas translation of the Bhagavad Gita which also includes Shankaras commentaries as well as a fine introduction to the Gita and an overview of the Mahabarata.
