The Upanishads mark __________ part of vedic literature.

  • A.middle
  • B.foreward
  • C.concluding
  • D.introductory

Answer: C

The Upanishads mark the concluding part of Vedic literature.

Each Veda has four layers: the Samhitas (hymns), the Brahmanas (ritual texts), the Aranyakas (forest treatises) and the Upanishads (philosophical texts). Because the Upanishads come at the end, they are called Vedanta, the end of the Veda.

They are not the introductory or middle part; the Samhitas begin the corpus. 'Foreward' is not a part of it.
