Yoga is Samatvam: Bhagavad-gita
22 January, 2023 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm IST
An event every week that begins at 6:00 pm on Sunday and Saturday, repeating until 22 January, 2023
योगस्थ: कुरु कर्माणि सङ्गं त्यक्त्वा धनञ्जय |
सिद्ध्यसिद्ध्यो: समो भूत्वा समत्वं योग उच्यते || 48||
yoga-sthaḥ kuru karmāṇi saṅgaṁ tyaktvā dhanañjaya
siddhy-asiddhyoḥ samo bhūtvā samatvaṁ yoga uchyate. 2.48
Perform actions dwelling in yoga, abandoning attachment, O Conquerer of Wealth, being alike to success and failure. Equanimity is called yoga. – Bhagavad-gita Ch. 2, v. 48.
The Bhagavad-gita propounds sadhakas to perform their daily actions in a manner that does not create any conflicts or suffering for themselves or for others around them. When faced with objects of opposite natures—pain and pleasure, sorrow and joy, one may learn to observe the fleeting nature of the world and maintain the awareness of one’s own essential nature.
Swami Rama in his commentary, the Perennial Psychology of the Bhagavad Gita, has explained Samatvam as “the sense of equanimity. It is the characteristic of a yogi who is ever established in knowledge. Such a yogi sees no difference between gold and dirt, heat and cold, pain and pleasure, and so on.”
In this contemplative study with Rabindra Sahu, we would try to learn and apply the principles of this samatvam in our daily life.
As our Master Swami Veda Bharati would often remind us that it is not possible to put a price on the teachings received, there is no course fee for this course. Loving donations from the heart may be offered and will support the ashram during the pandemic.
