The Bhagavad Gita is considered one of the sacred texts of Hinduism and also of Yoga. There have been many translations and commentaries going back at least a millennium and up to this very day. With all that has been written on this relatively small piece of text, it becomes apparent that a lot is packed in to it. It takes place on the battlefield, just before the fight is to start. It is here Arjuna asks Krishna to tell him what to do, as he is at a loss and does not want to fight. What follow are the most sacred teachings of Yoga from Krishna himself. The Bhagavad Gita is found within the Mahabharata, a voluminous text. The Gita itself consists of only 700 verses divided into 18 chapters. In this session we will first set the scene on the battlefield and then make our way through the entire text. We will discuss the main themes of the text including Karma Yoga and Bhakti Yoga as the paths to Moksha (supreme joy).
Required Text: We encourage you to read it before the class, but this is not a requirement. Please bring any and all copies you may have of the Bhagavad Gita.
