Lessons from the introduction of 'The Upanishads', translated by Juan Mascaró.
Mascaró was born in Majorca, Spain and was early interested in spirituality, copying a book on occultism at age 13.
However, he soon recognized its misleading nature, steering him away from false spiritual paths. This transformative encounter with the Bhagavad Gita revealed eternal truths, sparking a lifelong passion for Sanskrit and leading him to study modern and oriental languages, including Pali and English, at Cambridge. Mascaro lectured at Oxford on Spanish mystics, taught in Ceylon (Sri Lanka) and at the University of Barcelona, and later returned to Cambridge.
