The Isha Upanishad, regarded as first among the Upanishads, derives its name from the first word of the text. The Upanishad begins with the triumphant declaration that the whole universe is inhabited by Isa, the Lord, and belongs to Him.

Although the Upanishad has only 18 verses, they sum up the essential beliefs and practices of Hinduism. In fact, spiritually and for the purpose of leading a divine life, the 18 verses are as important as the 18 chapters of the Bhagavad Gita!

We are blessed to have Swamini Supriyananda guide us through the verses to understand the divine essence of this Upanishad. The event is free and all are welcome to attend.
