\n\t\t\t<\/b><\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t <\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tThis volume comprises Sri Aurobindo’s translations of and commentaries on Upanishads other than the Isha Upanishad. (His writings on that Upanishad appear in
\nIsha Upanishad<\/i>, volume
\n17 of THE<\/font> COMPLETE<\/font> WORKS OF<\/font> SRI
\n\t\t\t<\/font>AUROBINDO.) <\/font>It also includes his translations of later Vedantic texts and writings on
\nthe Upanishads and Vedanta philosophy in general. <\/font><\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tThe volume is divided into three parts. The first consists
\nof translations and commentaries that were published during Sri Aurobindo’s lifetime. The pieces in this part, along with
\nhis final translation of and commentary on the Isha Upanishad, are his most mature works of Upanishadic interpretation.
\nThe second and third parts consist of material from Sri Aurobindo’s manuscripts. The second includes early translations of
\nthe Prashna, Mandukya, Aitareya and Taittiriya Upanishads, and incomplete translations of and commentaries on some other
\nUpanishads and Vedantic texts. The third part comprises incomplete and fragmentary writings on the Upanishads and Vedanta
\nin general. <\/font><\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tAll the texts have been checked against the relevant manuscript and printed versions.<\/font><\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tThe contents of Parts Two and Three of this volume were never
\nprepared by Sri Aurobindo for publication. They have been transcribed from manuscripts that sometimes present textual
\ndifficulties. In this edition these problems have been indicated as far as possible by means of the notation shown below.
