Rebel Spirit Radio Samkhya Karika with Srivatsa Ramaswamim
In this episode, I welcome Srivatsa Ramaswami to the program to discuss his book Samkhya Karika: A Yoga Practitioner's Guide to Overcoming the Three Causes of Suffering. The conversation delves into the relationship between philosophy and yoga, the concepts of Purusha and Prakriti, and the Three Gunas. Ramaswami provides an in-depth exploration of Samkhya philosophy, drawing comparisons with modern science to make ancient teachings accessible to contemporary yoga practitioners. The episode further explores the philosophical grounding of Samkhya in Indian philosophy, the differences between Samkhya and Yoga Sutras, and the goal of achieving Kaivalya through the practice of samadhi. Don't miss this insightful discussion on spirituality, consciousness, and overcoming suffering.
