Brahman represents the
Supreme Reality for Hindus. Hindus believe that the Brahman,
described in the Upanishads can be viewed from two aspects
transcendent (impersonal) and immanent (personal). In its
transcendent aspect the Supreme Reality is called Nirguna Brahman,
or Brahman without attributes.
About Nirguna Brahman Taittiriya Upanishad states, “the Brahman is
He whom speech cannot extress, and from whom the mind, unable to
reach Him comes away baffled”.
According to Maitri Upanishad, “Brahman is immeasurable,
unapproachable, beyond conception, beyond birth, beyond reasoning,
and beyond thought”
