Atman: The Upanishads

The Upanishads are among the oldest philosophical texts ever written — composed between 800 and 200 BCE, they explore consciousness, identity, death, and the nature of reality. Atman brings all 108 of them to your pocket with three layers of translation, an AI tutor grounded in the source texts, guided reading paths, and a built-in meditation timer. This is not a religion app. It is a thinking app. THE TEXTS All 108 Upanishads, each presented in three layers: - The original Sanskrit - A classic scholarly translation (Muller, Hume) - A modern translation written in plain, direct language Three of the ten principal Upanishads are free to read in full. Premium unlocks the complete library. ASK THE UPANISHADS An AI tutor trained on the source texts. Ask any question — about ego, death, consciousness, purpose — and get a response grounded in specific verses you can read in full. Every answer includes a citation you can tap to explore the original text. Free users get 3 questions per day. GUIDED PATHS Curated multi-day reading journeys through the Upanishads: - "Who Am I?" — A 7-day introduction to self-inquiry (free) - "Consciousness for Skeptics" — What the ancients knew about awareness - "7 Days on Impermanence" — What stays and what goes - "The Nature of Death" — Nachiketa asked Death a question. Here is the answer. - "Beyond the Self" — When you let go of who you think you are DAILY SHLOKA One verse per day, delivered to your lock screen. Not a random quote — a carefully chosen teaching with a modern translation that cuts through. MEDITATION TIMER A clean, distraction-free timer with five breathing patterns (box breathing, 4-7-8, and more), an intro chime, and a completion bell. 3 to 30 minutes. BUILT FOR SEEKERS, NOT SCHOLARS Atman is designed for people who have read the self-help books, tried Stoicism, experimented with meditation — and want to go deeper. The Upanishads asked the questions that philosophy, psychology, and neuroscience are still working on. This app makes them accessible without dumbing them down. Your reading progress, bookmarks, and stats are tracked across sessions. Pick up where you left off.
