Abstract	Nissim Ezekiel is an important Indian English poet whose works represent an amalgamation of the Indian and Abrahamic traditions. This paper is an attempt to understand his poem in the Panchakosha theory of Indian knowledge systems. With foundations in Upanishadic thougths, Panchakosha theory is a way to understand the world. In this paper, an attempt has been made to use the Panchakosha theory for understanding poetry – more specifically a poem entitled “Enterprise” of Nissim Ezekiel. In this sense, it is a novel experiment to apply some philosophical ideas from the Indian knowledge traditions to understand a creative literary text in the genre ‘poetry’.
