Bhagavad Gita Weekly Study Program, Chapter 4, 'The 12 Yajnas' - August 25, 2020

Description:

'Spiritual practice is not a part-time, past-time retirement plan. It is full time awareness of the Reality' - Swami Parthasarathy. 
'Yajna' refers to the fire worship ritual 'havan'. Fire is worshiped as the idol representing the imperceptible, inconceivable Reality. The question is, how to peg your mind upon the Reality, the Pure Consciousness 24/7, while functioning in the world? While perceiving delighting sights or depressing incidents. Swami Parthasarathy's ingenious interpretation of the 12 Yajnas presents this possibility that runs concurrent & inherent to your day to day perception, breathing or any daily life routine. Attune to the Consciousness that makes you aware of perception, emotion & thought and discharge your response to the world without getting involved in any. This lifestyle of being ever rooted in the Consciousness while functioning in the world is called 'YOGA'. The lecture explains verses 25 to 28 of Ch 4, covering the first 9 of 12 yajnas. For comprehensive self-study on the Bhagavad Gita, more can be accessed from the commentary of Swami Parthasarathy on the Gita.
