A great body of literature is difficult to understand. Even when we are able to get what we believe to be the literal meaning of the words, they do not appear to make much sense. Or have a bearing on what we should regard as of some moral and spiritual value to human life.
The Upanishads contain a considerable body of matter of this kind. The Mahabharata includes the Bhagavad Gita and a number of discourses on philosophy and religion. But a substantial portion of even these works is difficult to grasp and understand. Nor is it easy to see how the Upanishads can be described as an exposition of the secret doctrine of the Vedas, when we do not know what that doctrine is. And the Vedas themselves, as we understand them, do not appear to justify the claim that they are a revelation of truth made by the Supreme Spirit himself.
A further exposition on the subject maybe read at:
