² Other titles are: Maitrāyaṇa-Brāhmaṇa-Up., Maitrāyaṇa-Up., Maitrāyaṇī-Up., and Maitrī-Up., s. Max Müller, SBE., Vol. 15, pp. xliii ff. There are several recensions of the text. The text (ed., with the commentary of Rāmatīrtha, by E. B. Cowell, 2nd ed. revised by Satischandra Vidyabhusan, Bibl. Ind, 1913 ff.) which has hitherto been translated consists of 7 Prapāṭhakas. But the two last Prapāṭhakas (declared to be supplementary by Deussen, Sechzig Upanishads, p. 330) are missing in the edition of Mahadeva Sastri (Sāmānya Vedanta Upanishads, pp. 388 ff.), where Prap., IV, 5 corresponds to the 5th Prapāṭhaka of the older editions. A different work is the metrical Maitreya-Upaniṣad (Minor Upaniṣads, ed. Schrader, I, pp. 105 ff.), which only in the prose introduction partly agrees with our Maitrāy.-Up.
