Book Reviews of The Upanishads: Breath of the Eternal
Book Review: My favorite - the most beautiful sacred text I've ever read
Summary: 5 Stars
I was talking to my brother-in-law's father about favorite spiritual books. He's been a dedicated meditator for decades.
I carry a copy of this Upanishads translation in my shoulder bag always. I pulled it out and asked, "Do you read these ?"
He chuckled with bright eyes and said, "Oh, I can't read those. They just make me meditate." He went on to explain that after only a page or two he spontaneously slips into meditation.
My experience is quite similar. It's as if this volume speaks directly to my Spirit, navigating its way through my critical mind to the essence of my inner Divine. It brings me peace, it fills me with faith, it melts my fears. I meditate easily after just a few sentences sometimes.
To me the Spirit is so profoundly expressed in here that I have no trouble with dogma or rhetoric, with symbolism or mythology. To me this translation serves as an invitation from the ancient mystics to join them. I can feel the Spirit welcome me.
This is less a review and more a personal experience. That's what this book is all about, though ~ a guidebook to direct personal experience of Spirit.
It's a frantic world we live in, fast and busy and complex. I find that this wonderful translation can help lead me to a stillness within, to a unity with all that is, to a feeling and understanding and connection with the magic of life.
What brought you here to this page ? Perhaps you seek a deeper spiritual connection with your inner Divine. I can only tell you my own story. I don't read this for scholarly theology. I read this as a guide for my journey within. This book brings me to my home, to my heart. I can't remember when I bought it, but the price on the cover says $2.95. It has held up wonderfully, and is the best three bucks I ever spent, hands down. I'm buying several extras to give and lend to those I love.
Welcome.
