Saraswatheerahasya Upanishad

Meaning “the Secret Knowledge of the Wisdom Goddess”. The text is classified as one of the eight Shakta Upanishads and embedded in the Krishna Yajurveda. The Upanishad is notable for glorifying the feminine as the Shakti (energy, power) and as the metaphysical Brahman principle, and extensively uses a combination of Bhakti and Vedanta terminology. The underlying philosophical premise of this text corresponds to Advaita Vedanta. The text is important to the Goddess traditions of Hinduism. The text has been influential in the Shaktism (Goddess) tradition of Hinduism. Many of its verses are found incorporated in later Shakti texts such as the Vakyasudha, a treatise on non-dualist Vedanta school of Hindu philosophy.
