Detailed explanation-1: -Brahman is a key concept found in the Vedas, and it is extensively discussed in the early Upanishads. The Vedas conceptualize Brahman as the Cosmic Principle. In the Upanishads, it has been variously described as Sat-cit-Änanda (truth-consciousness-bliss) and as the unchanging, permanent, highest reality.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Brhadaranyaka and the Chandogya are the two earliest Upanishads. They are edited texts, some of whose sources are much older than others.
Detailed explanation-3: -Though a variety of views are expressed in the Upanishads, they concur in the definition of brahman as eternal, conscious, irreducible, infinite, omnipresent, and the spiritual core of the universe of finiteness and change.
Detailed explanation-4: -The Upanishads are also called the Vedanta and come at the end of the total Veda. Though less studied than later texts, the Veda is the central scripture of Hinduism. The remembered texts consist of post-Vedic texts.
