Shvetashvatara Upanishad - A Meditation - Advaita Vedānta

Shvetashvatara (or Śvetāśvatara) Upanishad belongs to the Krishna-Yajurveda. It gets its name from Rishi Svetasvatara who taught the truth contained in it to his disciples. It presents a mixture of Vedanta, Sankhya and Yoga tenets.

This Upanishad is one of the ancient Sanskrit texts held sacred to Hinduism and Buddhism. Dealing in large part with metaphysical concerns, this text asks questions about the primal cause of all existence – its origin and end. It also ponders what role, if any, time, nature, necessity, chance, and the spirit had in the work of the primal cause. It concludes that the “Universal Soul” or Pure Consciousness exists in each individual and expresses itself through all of creation, and all objects project its existence. It also sees a unity to existence – a oneness of souls in a single, unique Reality.
