The essential philosophy of the entire Upanishadic thought – the Knowledge of the Self – is briefly dealt in this episode so that the audience is introduced to the essentials of the Upanishadic teaching right at the beginning. Narendra's experiment works wonders, and he resolves to uncover the Upanishadic Wisdom in a drama format through the Great Indian Theatre. On one hand, Gaurishankar gets an invitation to systematically teach the Upanishads to a group of seekers, and on the other, Narendra presents these lofty concepts through the medium of theatre. Thus begins the process of knowing oneself, answering the call of the Upanishads - "Arise. Awake. Know the Truth." Narendra presents the idea of knowing the Self through the medium of characters of Mahabharata who are blinded by the worldly thoughts and attachments. Gaurishankar, who also comes over to watch this is filled with pride and joy.
