Essence of Bhagavad Gita
Saturday, June 2 | 10:30am-6pm

Bhagavad Gita, loosely translated as Divine Song, is the guide-map to Yogic life. Study of Yoga becomes effective when we learn practical ways to live Yoga instead of doing Yoga. Bhagavad Gita is a treasure for anyone who wishes to live a life with awareness, responsibility and divinity.

In this workshop, we will explore the role of Bhagavad Gita in Yoga, in the life of Yogis/ Yoginis, in the life of a human being and that of a householder. We will go over some important verses pertaining to life, Yoga, karma, bhakti, and divinity. We shall chant these verses and also explore their deeper meaning.

A special part of this workshop will be to learn the essence of Bhagavad Gita known as Gita Saara. This helps us understand how to consolidate the essence as reminders which we shall benefit from in everyday life, everyday situations.

Cost: $108 ($98 for Devanadi TT grads)

“Therefore, without depending upon mantra…Buddhahood cannot be attained.”
