The
word Upanishad means learnings directly from a guru, sitting near guru. Upanishads are the sacred texts in Sanskrit
language that had been written to explain the spiritual meanings of various Vedas.
Many of the Upanishads are written by Rishi Yagnyawalka. Upanishads emphasize the spiritual life and correct ways of living as an individual and in society.
Upanishads explain Self-realization, Yoga, Meditation, Karma, Sanyasa (renunciation) and Reincarnation. They explain the procedure do perform these. These were implicit in Hindu religion and in Vedas. These are explicitly explained through Upanishads. They are more like Hindu Vedanta or philosophy.
They are supposed to be the form of metaphysics and highest category of philosophy. They are the results of great sages who thought of great ideas in the middle of forests and meditated deeply about humans and their lives.

Satyakama Jabala is a man that comes in Chandogya Upanishad. He goes out searching for a great teacher on Self-realization (atma-gyan). Jabala is his mother. They did not know about his father and his gotra. He meets his guru Rishi Gautama Haridrumata and tells truth about his not knowing about his father or gotra. Gautama agrees to teach him the knowledge, believing that only Brahmin can be so truthful and sincere.
Maitri or Maitreya or Maitra is probably the name of an ancient scholar who gave us Maitrayani Upanishad. It is related to Yajurveda.
