  Publisher’s Note
  This volume contains Sri Aurobindo’s translations of and
  commentaries on the Isha Upanishad. His translations of and
  commentaries on other Upanishads and Vedantic texts, and his
  writings on the Upanishads and Vedanta philosophy in general,
  are published in Kena and Other Upanishads, volume 18 of
  THE COMPLETE WORKS OF SRI AUROBINDO.
  The present volume is divided into two parts. The ﬁrst con-
  sists of Sri Aurobindo’s ﬁnal translation and analysis of the Isha
  Upanishad. This is the only work in this volume that was pub-
  lished during his lifetime. It contains his deﬁnitive interpretation
  of the Isha Upanishad.
  Before publishing this ﬁnal translation and analysis, Sri
  Aurobindo wrote ten incomplete commentaries on the Isha Upa-
  nishad.
