Beschreibung
There are admittedly several possibilities of constructing, understanding and translating néti néti. Post-Verdic exegeses have a significant part in modern standard translations of néti néti in the Brhadaranyaka Upanisad. The late-medieval Indian narrative of a paramount importance of Sankara for the undersanding of the Upanisads, and the latters construction of one philosophy underlying them, is widely taken at its face value still today.
