This Upaniṣad unfolds the meaning of Kshetragjñaḥ beautifully as that conscious being, which is the knower of this body, manifest in the form of the faculty of the mind, characterized by its capacity of conceiving, resolution, and “I” notion. 

What really is avidyā? what is Ātmajñāna? If the truth of all being is Bhagavan, how did it become this Purusha? Listen to find out. 

The difference between Jiva and Īśvara are not separated by time and space. Ātmajñānam, ignorance due to māyāśakti, is the separating factor between Jiva and Īśvara. This episode gives the definitions of Sat, and Jagat or Mithyā. 

Why is the creation mythology given in the Srutis? and why is it said that Jiva is not a creation of Bhagavan? This talk is a must listen to remove all doubts and understand the purport behind the creation mythology. 

It was expounded earlier that this universe was created by that being, devoid of any desire to create. Puzzled by this statement, the astute Valakhilyas ask Prajapati to explain how a creation is possible without a desiring creator.  Listen to this deeply insightful episode, as Prajapati presents an astounding analogy of sleep to elucidate this very point.

What is the meaning of puruṣa? Why is the infallible 'creator', Bhagavan and the fallible Jiva both called by this name? What does it mean when the impeller behind the creation is said to be un-objectifiable, Adṛṣyaḥ? 

The Valakhilyas, after having listened attentively to Lord Prajapati ask a brilliantly astute question. How can this being which has no desires create and how can this being be the impeller? Listen to find out!
