Aitareya Upanisad: With the commentary of Sankaracarya
For those interested in Brahmavidya, or the direct seeing of reality, the Upanishads are a must reading, and the Aitareya is among the most important. This is an excellent translation by Swami Sarvananda who displays great scholarship as well as depth of understanding of the material. The text is given in both English translation and original Sanskrit in Devanagari text. there is no English transliteration of the Devanagari, but this is only lacking for those who aspire to read the original Sanskrit but who are not yet adept in reading the Devanagari. The introduction is quite valuable for those wishing to understand this and other Upanishads in their historical and spiritual context, and discusses many of the key terms and concepts given in this text. Recommended.
