Paperback. Zustand: New. Language: English. About The Book: "The Spirit of the Upanishads: Or the Aphorisms of the Wise" is a compilation of texts, aphorisms, sayings, and proverbs sourced from "The Upanishads," the Sacred Writings of India. This volume represents the essence of Hindu philosophical thought, drawn from a diverse array of over fifty authorities. The contents speak for themselves and require little introduction, given the widely recognized significance of the Upanishads' profound philosophy. As the German philosopher Schopenhauer remarked, the study of the Upanishads is unparalleled in its benefit and elevation. Each aphorism in this book underscores this truth, aiming to guide readers towards a realization of the profound wisdom contained within. As stated in the Yogavasishtha, every individual is drawn to that which resonates with their heart as truth, reflecting the law of learning wherein one accepts what aligns with their inner truth while letting the rest await their readiness. About The Author: Ramacharaka was born around 1799 in India, embarked on a lifelong journey to discover a profound philosophy. Travelling extensively throughout the East, he immersed himself in the wisdom of lamaseries, monasteries, and private libraries. Around 1865, after years of searching and meditation, he formulated his philosophy and took on Baba Bharata as a pupil. In 1893, sensing his impending end, he sent Bharata to Chicago's World Columbian Exposition, where he garnered acclaim for his lectures. Collaborating with American author William Walker Atkinson, Bharata's teachings were compiled into books attributed to Yogi Ramacharaka, achieving global recognition and ongoing popularity despite historical inaccuracies. William Walker Atkinson (1862-1932) was an attorney, merchant, publisher, and author, pioneered the New Thought movement in America. Born in 1862, he authored numerous works under pseudonyms, exploring topics like logic, memory, psychology, and metaphysics. Despite initial setbacks, Atkinson found solace in New Thought principles, attributing his recovery and prosperity to their application. His bibliography includes over 100 books, covering diverse subjects such as mental influence, telepathy, and the laws of attraction. Atkinson's legacy endures through his contributions to the understanding of the mind and its potential.
