Acharya Prashant at Oxford University || Ishavasya Upanishad (2026)

Acharya Prashant at Oxford University || Ishavasya Upanishad (2026)

At Oxford University, Acharya Prashant examines the second verse of the Isha Upanishad and explores a fundamental question: who is the one behind all our actions? The discussion looks at the ego—the sense of “I” that acts, desires, identifies with the body, seeks security, and constantly looks for something that will make it feel complete. The conversation explores self-preservation, desire, attachment to the body, psychological fulfillment and our ideas of freedom.

Acharya Prashant at Cambridge University

"In this thought-provoking conversation at Cambridge University London, Professor Jaideep Prabhu and Acharya Prashant examine one of the defining questions of our time: What happens when human capability grows rapidly, but self-understanding does not? Their dialogue spans technology, education, consumerism, climate change, AI, leadership, capitalism, and philosophy, while repeatedly returning to one central idea: Mass-based education of the self.",
