The Vedas And Upanishads For Children
Roopa Pai
Age (years) : 8 - 99
Three thousand years ago, deep inside the forests of India, a
great ‘thought revolution’ was brewing.
In those forest labs, the brightest thinker–philosophers
contemplated the universe, reflected on ancient texts called the
Vedas and came up with startling insights into questions we
still don’t have final answers to, like:
• What is the universe made of?
• How do I know I’m looking at a tree when I see one?
• Who am I? My body, my mind, my intelligence, my emotions,
or none of the above?
And where did they put those explosive findings?
In a sprawling body of goosebumpy and fascinating oral
literature called the Upanishads! Intimidated? Don’t be! For
this joyful, fun guide to some of India’s longest-lasting secular
wisdoms, reinterpreted for first-time explorers by Roopa Pai, is
guaranteed to keep you turning the pages.
