All in One, One in All : Ishavasya Upanishad

 
The Ishavasya Upanishad stands as one of the most prominent and concise Upanishads, yet within its 18 mantras lies the complete vision of Advaita Vedanta. Opening with the striking verse “Ishavasyam idam sarvam” – that everything in creation, whether living or non-living, is pervaded by the Lord, it immediately invites us to shift our perspective from the limited to the infinite. The mantras go on to present a vision of life guided by dharma and purposeful action, showing how those who align with this truth flourish, while those who neglect it fall into the darkness of ignorance. The Upanishad describes the Supreme as both the indwelling presence in all beings and the ultimate reality in which the entire universe rests. With poetic depth and uncompromising clarity, it dissolves the apparent duality between the seer and the seen, reminding us that everything we experience, what we see, hear, touch, taste, or think – is nothing other than Brahman alone. In this illuminating series, Swami Sharadananda Saraswati unfolds the meaning of each verse in detail, bringing out their timeless relevance and practical insights. With every step, he gently guides us toward the recognition of our true nature and the discovery of the divine presence in and through all that exists. Join us in this beautiful journey of inner awakening, as we revel in the vision of oneness revealed by the Ishavasya Upanishad. Webinar Highlights
