Now Podcasting - a discussion on The Bhagavad Gita. You are welcome to listen to all the episodes serially. Each episode is kept at about 10-15 minutes length for ease of listening and to give time for Manana or reflection upon what you have heard. A journey within oneself - together. The Space Within refers to the mental space - Chidakasha or Hrudayakasha - which harbours all the thoughts and emotions. Clearing this space and experiencing pure bliss is the goal of spiritual quest.

    Chapter VI Atma-Samyama Yoga: (36-47)

    In this concluding section of the Chapter, Lord Krishna clarifies the doubts of Arjuna and clearly states that the Path of Meditation is essential and is superior to mere bookish knowledge, or the path of action, or the practice of austerities. The path of meditation gives the person an experience of the Supreme Goal and is the highest form of yoga. Any progress made on this path is very important and worthwhile. One gets his or her subsequent birth in a noble family when one walks the spiritual path from where the journey can progress further.

    Chapter VI Atma-Samyama Yoga: (30-35)

    Lord Krishna lists the advantages of the Path of Meditation. How it takes us to the Brahman state where we perceive the One in every one.  Arjuna asks if it is really possible for him with his fickle mind and Lord Krishna gives the advice to persist with the practice (Abhyasa) and have dispassion (Vairagya).

    Chapter VI Atma-Samyama Yoga: (20-29)

    In this section there is further description of meditation process. The benefits of meditation are also described. There is some bit of effort required. A skill to observe the mind and by observing the mind becoming the Witness. The Witness state is one of the important aspects of Enlightenment.

    Chapter VI Atma-Samyama Yoga: (1-10)

    The key points so far are summarised in the first ten verses of this chapter. A person who has given up all selfish-desires for action and who remains equanimous in any adverse condition for the body, mind or ego and remains firmly established in the Self within himself is a true yogi. That one must make constant efforts for self-control (Atma-Samyama).

    In this concluding section of Chapter V, Lord Krishna underlines the inportance of Knowledge of the self and teaches us in brief - how we can experience the Self - get a glimpse of the self. The process of meditation is mentioned in brief. The result of meditation being an experience of Love, Compassion and Peace!

    Chapter V (Karma-Samnyasa Yoga:) (15-24)

    In this section Lord Krishna underscores the importance of the Knowledge of the Brahman in experiencing whatever has been said so far. Be it remembering the transient nature of the world as opposed to the permanent nature of Truth; the equanimity of mind - beyond all dualities; or overcoming desires, anger and fear; or performing actions for the good of others in a spirit of sacrifice. All of these happen automatically for a person who gets a glimpse of the Knowledge of the Brahman (Supreme Self).

    Chapter V (Karma-Samnyasa Yoga:) (1-14)

    This chapter again begins with a doubt from Arjuna. He asks Lord Krishna if the Renunciation of Action is better or the Path of Action. Renunciation is often misunderstood as leaving everything and retiring to the Himalayas for penance. Far from it. Renunciation is clarified as 'renunciation of desire for fruits of action' or of desire-driven actions. Not renunciation of action itself!
