	Brahmanism (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		He is claimed by the Upanishads as an Upanishadic teacher, by the Jaina sutras as a follower of Jainism and by the Buddhist sources as a devout follower of Buddha.
		The fact that the Katha Upanishad is aware of it and criticizes its expounders proves that this old Upanishad cannot be earlier than the fifth century B. The word sramana occurs for the first time in the Birhadaranyaka Upanishad and it never became a word of respect in Brahmanical literature.
		The older Upanishads thus should be placed in between 500 and 300 B. The approval of asceticism (yoga and dhyana) and criticism of sacrificial ritualism characteristic of the older "Upanishadic period" therefore means the period between Buddha and Asoka.

		The Upanishads are a series of brief writings that originated from hymns and teachings in early Indian civilization, some dating to approximately 1500 BC.

		The Upanishads do not provide easy answers, but rather lead the reader to become conscious of the questions and the questioner, to experience spiritual being-ness and connection to the universe.

		The Chandogya Upanishad (1.1.1-10) states, "The udgitha is the best of all essences, the highest, deserving the highest place, the eighth."
		Notes the Chandogya Upanishad, "That syllable, is a syllable of permission; for, whenever we permit anything, we say Om." However, this is a myopic perspective because the same Hindu scriptures, the Upanishads, that aver this function also attribute to it the divine property of the source of the universe.
		Aum is seen as the source of existence as we know it within the causal dimensions of time and space, and thus affirmatory meanings in languages are a natural progression.

		The Taittiriya Upanishad is exceptional in that it is one of the first writings to present a systemmatic metaphysic or theory of first principles.
		The Taittiriya Upanishad presents a very world-affirming philosophy, because each level of self is described in a positive way, and Brahman itself is referred to emphatically as the nature of Bliss (Ananda).
