THE dotrine of
the Vedanta is summarized in the following mantras:
The Lord upholds the Universe, which is a union of the manifest and the unmanifest, the
imperishable and the perishable. Functioning as Enjoyer through the senses, the Soul in
man loses the consciousness of lordship and is enchained. When he realizes lordship, he is freed from every tie. Let man realize the Divinity of his soul. There by does he obtains Release. 1-8
Ishwara rules over the Soul as well as material nature which forms the field for the
Soul’s functioning. Man reaches liberation from all the illusions of the world by
contemplation and repeated meditation until realization is attained of the true nature of these three, God, Matter and Soul.
