> Translation and Coherence Analysis of the Kaṭha-Upaniṣad”), available

> “The Kaṭha-Upaniṣad is a Sanskrit text composed about 2000 years ago
> dealing with the nature of human beings after death. As one of the earliest
> sources that teach a salvific method designated as yoga, the Kaṭha-Upaniṣad
> has gained renown outside of South Asia. However, due to its textual
> heterogeneity, it has often been said to be incoherent.
>
> In this study, Dominik A. Haas offers a new annotated German translation
> of the text and analysis using text-linguistic methods. He argues that,
> from the beginning, the Kaṭha-Upaniṣad was conceived as a compilation
> intended to combine new contemplative and yogic teachings with the ritual
> mysticism of the famous Vedic fire altar.”

> I hope you can make use of it!
