Foreword

Upanishad is the name of spiritual knowledge or Brahma pitya. They constitute the knowledge part of the Vedas, It is that eternally lit lamp of knowledge which has spread light since Creation. It is eternal, perennial and indestructible. Its light has that immortality which has nourished the roots of Sanatan Dharma It is India's own treasure meant for the welfare of the whole world

The Upanishads part deals with the knowledge section (Gyan kand) of the Vedas In the present manvantara 1180 branches of the Vedas ensued. A similar number of the Upanishads, the Brahman and the mantras also followed. This count of the Vedas is obtained in the Puranas and the Upanishads. But today even a hundredth part of it is not available Granth equal to the Upanishads are found in the Puranas as well for instance Shrimad Bhagvad Geeta in the Mahabharata, which is considered as the essence of the Upanishads.
