The Upanishads are an authoritative compendium of Indian metaphysics. They represent the earnest efforts of profound thinkers of early India to solve the problems of origin, nature, and destiny of man and the universe, more technically the meaning and value of knowing and being. They are replete with sublime conceptions and with intuitions of universal truth. These UpaniÈads sets forth two opposing one of mundane life and the other relating to a life that is in search of the Supreme Reality and man's ultimate aim.

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. Here is "The World's Living Religions, an Historical Sketch, with Special Reference to their Sacred Scriptures and in Comparison with Christianity" by Robert Ernest Hume. Published in 1949 by Charles Scribner's Sons in a handsome cloth-covered binding, this is the Revised Edition, and was the 26th Printing. Hume had at one time been Professor of the History of Religions at Union Theological Seminary. The author was trying his best for impartiality, but to my view, the book is weighted towards Christianity. It was a different world, and the mere act of trying to put forth at that time a complete comparative religions text was praiseworthy. Very interesting.
