Dear Colleagues,

     I have been rereading Professor Paul Thieme's article on the

claim that the Chāndogya-Upaniṣad is older than the Īśa.  Here is that

What is a good modern discussion about the relative chronology of the
"older" Upaniṣads?  Has anyone discussed Thieme's views?  With best regards,
