The Katha Upanishad embraces the key ideas of Indian mysticism in a mythic story we can all relate to the quest of a young hero, Nachiketa, who ventures into the land of death in search of immortality.But the insights of the Katha are scattered, hard to understand. Easwaran presents them systematically, and practically, as a way to explore deeper and deeper levels of personality, and to answer the ageold question, Who am I?Easwaran grew up in India, learned Sanskrit from a young age, and became a professor of English literature before coming to the West. His translation of The Upanishads is the bestselling edition in English.For students of philosophy and of Indian spirituality, and readers of wisdom literature everywhere, Easwarans interpretation of this classic helps us in our own quest into the meaning of our lives.
