The List of the Names of 108 Upanishads

The Upanishads are the sacred Sanskrit texts of Hindus that are part of the Vedas. The names of 108 Upanishads are given in the Muktika Upanishad. The Rig Veda contains 10, Samaveda 16, Shukla Yajurveda 19, Krishna Yajurveda 32, and Atharvaveda 31 Upanishads.

Per some scholars, there are about 350 Upanishads, but only 108 of them are considered authoritative. The word Upanishad means “sitting down near”. It refers to students sitting down near their teacher and gaining knowledge. Upanishads are also known as “Vedanta,” which means “end of knowledge”.
