8 Life Lessons from the Bhagavad Gita

The timeless wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita has both challenged and inspired the world’s greatest thinkers for centuries. An indispensable guide for the serious yogi, the Bhagavad Gita provides a definitive explanation of the law of action and reaction within the cycle of birth and death (karma and samsara), describes the qualities of material and spiritual natures, and reveals the means to move through the challenges of material life from a spiritual position. In this session we’ll look at the organization of the text, explore the Gita’s hierarchical conception of reality, and discuss the Gita’s ethical dilemmas. Participants will also learn how to chant the Gita’s lyrical Sanskrit verses.

Cost: $25 for single workshop; $40 includes both Saturday’s Yoga Sutras Workshop and Sunday’s Bhagavad Gita workshop.
