\nThe present volume is divided into two parts The first consists of Sri Aurobindo’s final translation and analysis of the Isha Upanishad This is the only work in this volume that was published during his lifetime It contains his definitive interpretation of the Isha Upanishad
\n<\/span> <\/p>\n

\nBefore publishing this final translation and analysis, Sri Aurobindo wrote ten incomplete commentaries on the Isha Upanishad These appear in approximate chronological order in Part Two Ranging in length from a few pages to more than a hundred, they show the development of his interpretation of this Upanishad from around 1900 to the middle of 1914, when he began work on his final translation and analysis
