Vedanta's Core in Isa Upanishad: Divergence & Harmony

The Isa Upanishad serves as a microcosm of Vedanta, encapsulating its core teachings on self-realization and liberation. Different schools of Vedanta—Advaita (non-dualism), Vishishtadvaita (qualified non-dualism), and Dvaita (dualism)—offer divergent interpretations of this text. However, beneath these differences lies a shared emphasis on the relationship between the self and the absolute. Under IsA-vAsya Upanishad – The Three Vedantic Perspectives, this course explores the dynamic tension between these viewpoints, demonstrating the harmony that exists within Vedanta’s diverse philosophical traditions.
