"The title of this book, Aranyaka, meaning 'of the forest', alludes to a set of 3,000-year-old Vedic scriptures full of mysterious metaphors, composed after the Samhitas (hymn collections), alongside the Brahmanas (ritual manuals), but before the Upanishads (philosophical expositions)"--Page 161.
Includes bibliographical references (page 181) and index.
