Friedrich Max Muller Upanishads

Annotation

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Even a single ceremonial act, performed at the time of a famine or an inundation, and apparently attended with a sudden and almost miraculous success, might often be preserved in the liturgical code Of a family or a tribe with a superstitious awe entirely beyond our understanding. It might be repeated for some time on Similar emergencies, till when it had failed again and again it survived only as a superstitious custom in the memory of priests and poets.
