In this final episode, Sri Madhusudan Sai explains more on the different levels of knowledge, and if used correctly, how they lead us to the ultimate liberation that comes from ātmavidyā - realising one's true divine nature as brahman. This realisation of "I am brahman" has to permeate every cell and become one's entire existence.
The episode also touches upon the role of brahmacarya, sannyasa, and the significance of pursuing spiritual wisdom instead of getting trapped in materialistic desires. It highlights how the upanishads provide clear answers to existential questions that other philosophies cannot. -
In this third episode, Sri Madhusudan Sai provides some background on where this ancient scripture came from.

2. Why did the perfect, limitless brahman create our limited senses and minds? What was the purpose?
His insights clearly answer these profound questions that puzzle spiritual seekers. His explanations go beyond the intellectual level to reveal the ultimate truth. -

In this episode, Sri Madhusudan Sai delves deeper into the core teachings of the Ishavasyopanishad. He explains about avidyā and vidyā, karmakāṇḍa (ritualistic actions) and upāsanākāṇḍa (ceremonies of worship), how far they can take you in life, while emphasising that the ultimate goal of mokṣa can only be achieved through brahmavidyā - the realisation of the supreme brahman.
His commentary continues to explain the nature of the immortal atman, transcending attachments and aversions, selfless action without desires, and surrendering to the Divine through sincere prayer at the end of one's life journey. Final redemption is only at the hand of brahman. -
