Among all the upanishads Isha upanishad has taken a valuable place. It is a beautiful gift given by our elders to us. So human should not only read it but also to understand it properly and implement in there own life's. It is the explanation of the universal nature's law.
Today let's understand the importance of it... Let's decode it step by step...
=================================
ईशा वास्यम् इदं सर्वम् यत्किञ्च जगत्यां जगत् । तेन त्यक्तेन भुञ्जीथा मा गृधः कस्य स्विद् धनम् ।।१।।
Everything in this world all the living and non living; all are made of isha and among them all isha is flowing from the beginning to the infinit.... There is nothing which is not isha...So there is nothing like me or you... Everything is Isha... Isha have no shape or structure in the same time it's in every form. That's how nothing can be invented or destroyed...Only can be discovered....
That's why elders say पूर्ण मिदं पूर्ण मदं पूर्णात पूर्ण मुदाच्याते पूर्णस्य पूर्ण मादय पूर्ण मेवा बशिष्यते।। so don't feel so feel so sad that you lose this or that or don't feel proud that you gained this or that.... Before you everything was there and after you all those thing will be there... So don't put yourself too much attached to anyone or anything. So everything in this world is unstable but there is one who is stable... He walks with you he talk with you he see what you see he takes what you eat.... He is isha.... So the only attachment which should be the Isha/ Brahma.... The only way to get him is moksh...
=================================
कुर्वन् एव इह कर्माणि जिजीविषेच्छतँ समाः । एवं त्वयि न अन्यथा इतः अस्ति न कर्म लिप्यते नरे ।।२।।
By performing good deeds or doing satkarma no one can get salvation . Even you do satkarma it has it's own karma phal...Even if you do it for 100 of years even after that also you cannot attend the Moksha . Every karma have its own karma phal, even we breath in that is a karma and same on the other hand we breath out that is the karma phala. According to yogies the cycle of birth and death is the hell...And that is karma which holds the cycle of birth and death... So to became karma sunya is the only way to break this chain and to get salvation. So only by doing good deeds or prayers, sadhanas and all other things no can get moksha. These karmas can be helpful to get it but only by doing this no can get Him....The Isha...
================================
असुर्या नाम ते लोका अन्धेन तमसा आवृताः । ताँस्ते प्रेत्य अभिगच्छन्ति ये के च आत्म हनः जनाः ।।३।।
This world is full of ignorance and darkness. No one knows the truth . In this darkness of ignorance all of them who attach them self with worldly things they until unless they detach them selfs from everything..even their body and mind all of them will always bounded by the law of karma and the cycle of death and birth...
Think about a game you play it everyday if you know the rules and you play accordingly you will achieve day by day and only after that the game will be interested... But what happens when you play but didn't achieve anything then the same game will become irritating... That's how life is also about if achieve day by day then you will enjoy it and if not you will suffer it as same....
Upanishads and vedas are the guideline of the life if you follow them you achieve day by day .....
I mentioned first 3 slokas of the Isha upanishad accordingly soon will be published....
Hope this article helps you... If any suggestions let me know....
