I have been wanting to do a deep dive on the Bhagavad Gita for years. This rich text is often called the “jewel” of the Mahabharata and can be kind of intimidating to talk about. There is so much to cover. That’s why this podcast will be the first in a series about the Bhagavad Gita. We’ll start with exploring the profound themes of this amazing text and contrasting it with the Yoga Sutras. We’ll talk about how the dialogue between Arjuna and Krishna serves as a guide for navigating our own moral dilemmas.

Listen and learn:

🔹How the Bhavagad Gita’s key themes differ from the Yoga Sutras

🔹Why Arjuna's internal conflict represents our own struggles

🔹The complexities of Dharma – it’s not as simple as you think!
