IN the Upanishads, we have a scripture, which, among all the Holy Scriptures of
the world, displays the most scientific spirit in connection with spiritual enquiry. The
sages, whose thoughts and teachings we read in the Upanishads, seem to be as much inspired
by constructive doubt as the most modem men of science.
Their questions and answers indicate
that they lived in an age when, alongside of conformism and the rigid maintenance of old
practices, men thirsted for Truth and the atmosphere was charged with the boldest free
thought: Satyamevajayate nanrtam satyenapantha vitato devayanah.
