Juan Mascaró

Joan Mascaró (8 December 1897 – 19 March 1987) was a Spanish translator. Quotes "Amongst the sacred books of the past, the Upanishads can be called the truth the Himalayas of the soul. Their passionate wanderings of discovery to find that sun of the spirit in us, from whom we have the light of our consciousness and the fire of our life; the greatness of their questions, and the sublime simplicity of their answers; their radiance of joy..." (source: The Upanishads - By Juan Mascaro). "The Gita is like a little shrine in a vast temple, a temple that is both a theatre and a fair of this world." (source: The Bhagvad Gita - translated By Juan Mascaro). External links Category:1897 births Category:1987 deaths Category:Academics from Spain Category:Translators from Spain
