http://tinyurl.com/pwmw2kv Christopher Isherwood reading selections from the Upanishads, as translated by Swami Prabhavananda and Frederick Manchester. In ancient times, sc In that spirit, we offer a CD that was originally brought out in 1976 as a double-LP record set. Re-mastered from the original tapes and slightly edited to fit both records on one CD. The following Upanishads are on the CD: Isha (2:10) Katha (20:16 Aitareya (4:35) Brihadaranyaka (19:45) Svetasvatara (13:20) Taittiriya (7:45) Chandogya (9:43) This CD has a lot of material. You may want to listen to it in sections. Isherwood's reading of the Katha Upanishada is of special note. This Upanishad tells the story of a young man who goes to the god of Death where he learns the secret of life. We used to listen to Chris read this sc Needless to say, this translation is our favorite. |
