The Philosophy of the Upanishads and Ancient Indian Metaphysics: As Exhibited in a Series of Articles Contributed to the Calcutta Review

"The Philosophy of the Upanishads and Ancient Indian Metaphysics" by Archibald Edward Gough, first published in 1882, is a critical academic work that delves into the complex and profound philosophical concepts embedded in the Upanishads. These ancient texts are central to the spiritual and philosophical traditions of Hinduism, focusing on understanding the nature of reality and the self. This book meticulously analyzes key metaphysical themes such as the universal soul (Brahman), the individual soul (Atman), the nature of knowledge, and the path to spiritual liberation (moksha). Moreover, this book remains a valuable resource for students and scholars of philosophy and religious studies, interested in the foundational texts of Hindu philosophy.
