Practical Bhagavad Gita: Insights and Application

● Learn to practically apply the vital concepts of the Bhagavad Gita/Vedanta in your daily life and work situations — brought to you by Intellect Yoga Institute via Open Pathshala.


The Bhagavad Gita presents the multidimensional aspects of our scriptures in a historical context that remains relevant even in today's modern world. Bhagavad Gita/Vedanta encompasses the ethical, philosophical, and behavioral facets of Sanatana Dharma, but we've neglected this holistic wisdom. While modern life is more comfortable, it's also more complex. Waiting until retirement to study our scriptures is counterproductive — Vedanta is meant to empower us during our most active years.

This program covers all four pillars of YogaShastra, the complete framework for fulfilling your highest potential while maximizing impact on the world around us.

Intellect Yoga Institute conducts extraordinary programs that are unique and impactful. Our Applied Vedanta series is one of its kind. Participants get to learn key concepts in detail along with frameworks, techniques to implement and grow through their direct experience. The key insights gathered are universal in context and timeless in their relevance.
