About this listen
Three thousand years ago, deep inside the forests of India, a great 'thought- revolution' was brewing. In those forest labs, the brightest scientist-philosophers contemplated the universe and reflected upon the already-ancient texts called the Vedas, gaining some startling insights into questions that we still have no watertight 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 NOTA? And where did they put those explosive findings?
In a sprawling body of goose-bumpy, thought-provoking and fascinating oral literature called the Upanishads!
Intimidated? Don't be! For this joyful, fun guide to some of India's most enduring and secular wisdoms, reinterpreted for first-time explorers by author Roopa Pai, is guaranteed to keep you listening. Why haven't you checked it out yet?
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

This book is amazing. Not only for children, for any age, if you want a brief introduction of Veda and Upnishada, just go for it.
This book is a excellent gifting option too.

Ideal not only for children!
Ms. Pai has done an amazing job of presenting a philosophically dense subject like Veda and Upanishads in a simple to understand manner. This is ideal even, or rather more so, for adults who want to get an understanding about what the Vedas and the Principal Upanishads are all about. And the format of giving backgrounds, interesting facts about each of them, the learnings and the take away in language that a youth would immediately relate to, makes this collection treasurable. The narration by Ms. Gopinath is clear and adds tremendous value to this Audible.
