Advayatārakopaniṣat (अद्वयतारकोपनिषत्) and the Maṇḍalabrāhmaṇopaniṣat are two Yoga Upaniṣads which preserve the most extensive teachings available on a system of yoga consisting of Tāraka and Amanaska. The eighteenth-century south-Indian commentator, Upaniṣadbrahmayogin, who wrote commentaries on both these Upaniṣads, understood their system of yoga to be Rājayoga. [...] Both these Upaniṣads appear to be relatively recent works. The Maṇḍalabrāhmaṇopaniṣat has been dated by Christain Bouy (1994: 44) to the first half of the eighteenth century when the corpus of one hundred and eight Upaniṣads was redacted in South India. [...] The most obvious difference between the Maṇḍalabrāhmaṇopaniṣat and the Advayatārakopaniṣat is that the former is at least three times the size of the latter.
