Based on the passage, which of the following most strongly influenced Dara Shikoh's
religious views?
"Let the blessings of Allah be upon Muhammad and his companions universally. In the year 1640 C.E. I wanted to
behold the mystics of every sect, to hear the lofty expressions of monotheism, and to cast my eyes upon many books of
mysticism. I, therefore, examined the Book of Moses, the Gospels, and the Psalms.
Among the Hindus, the best of their heavenly books, which contain all the secrets of pure monotheism, are called the
Upanishads. Because I do not know Sanskrit, I wanted to make an exact and literal translation of the Upanishads into
Persian. For the Upanishads are a treasure of monotheism and there are few thoroughly conversant with them even
among the Indians. Thereby I also wanted to make the texts accessible to Muslims.
*Persian was the primary language used at the Mughal court.
--Dara Shikoh, son of the Mughal ruler Shah Jahan, account of the translation of the Upanishads into Persian, 1657 CE.
