The Upanishads are not only philosophical texts but actually the path on which we take steps in life. You may notice that on an average day, you would ask yourself about hundreds of questions. Where do you get the answers from? The answers lie hidden in these Upanishads. It is believed that one who has the knowledge of these Upanishads has answers to all difficult, complex as well as easy and day to day situations of life.
