Upanishads and their Philosophies
The Upanishads, literally meaning 'sitting near' (a teacher), form the concluding part of the Vedas (hence Vedanta) and represent a radical philosophical shift. They moved beyond the mechanical ritualism of the Brahmanas to emphasize mystical, intellectual inquiry and articulate the core concepts of Atman, Brahman, and Moksha, thus forming the basis for all orthodox Indian philosophy.
