GENERAL INDEX

This Index aims to present, in the alphabetic arrangement of the
key-words, a complete survey of the principal contents of the thirteen
Upanishads translated in this volume. The names and subjects of
the Bibliography have not been included here, and considerations of
space have likewise required the omission of proper names of secondary
importance.

The numbers refer to pages. Superior numerals refer to the footnotes.
