It begins by highlighting the place of the Upanishads within the broader Eastern religions, including Hinduism. It describes the central premise of the Upanishads, particularly the nature of the layering of human consciousness, each with different logic-systems, and the central role of Brahman and its relationship to Ātman as a template for ontological Truth.
