The Upanishads

About this app

The Upanishads are records of the deepest spiritual experiences of the ancient Indian Rishis of that age. It is here that one gets a glimpse of the workings of the minds of the great seers and thinkers of ancient India. It is from here that the entire systems of Indian philosophy and religion and spirituality have drawn their inspiration and the energy for their growth and enrichment. The Upanishads represent the true Indian spirit in not only religion, philosophy and spirituality but they are also the fountain-head of all Indian art, poetry and literature.

There are several commentaries, both ancient and modern, by Indians and scholars from the West. Among them the writings of Sri Aurobindo on the Upanishads occupy a special place as they are based directly on intuitive and spiritual experiences, and are yet presented in a manner suitable to the modern rational mind.

We present here the major Upanishads in the light of Sri Aurobindo, which may be useful for the spiritual seeker, the scholar of religion and philosophy, and the student interested in India’s spiritual tradition, her ancient and rich culture. It will be of special benefit to the youth who want to imbibe the values contained in the Upanishads and to build a new India in the future.

Ratings and reviews

Just what I was looking for in the playstore. Its just a perfect app. Quality content, no inrusice ads at all, no paywalls and the majority of the content is transparent and translated into English. The one that is not, has a transliteration, so I can copy it to the translator and translate it. I hope those will be translated into English soon. (Minor vedas)

One of the best app I have found for Upanishads minimalisticaly simple and brilliant

Deleted this app! Inspite of the magnificent work done by Vande Matram team, it is really surprising and unbelievable that the app can't remember the last place where one was reading... When one opens the app, it must automatically go to the place where one was reading the last time, otherwise there's no point in providing this app... Even the simplest apps available have this ability.
