' The Isa-Upanishad '...

All this,, whatsoever exists in the universe,, should be covered by the Lord... Having renounced (the unreal),, enjoy (the Real)... Do not covet the wealth of any man.. .................................. We cover all things with the Lord, by perceiving the Divine Presence everywhere... When the consciousness is firmly fixed in God,, the conception of diversity naturally drops away;, because the One Cosmic Existence, shines through all things.. As we gain the light of wisdom,, we cease to cling to the unrealities, of this world, and we find all our joy, in the realm of Reality... .................................. The word "enjoy",, is also interpreted by the great commentator Sankaracharya, as "protect,",, because knowledge of our true Self, is the greatest protector and sustainer... If we do not have this knowledge,, we cannot be happy;, because nothing on this external plane of phenomena, is permanent or dependable... He who is rich in the knowledge of the Self,, does not covet external power or possession................................... The Upanishads Translated and Commentated by, Swami Paramananda... From the Original Sanskrit Text,, This volume is reverently dedicated to all seekers of truth and lovers of wisdom................
