Reflections

  • What if we do perfect Yoga Asanas (postures): is it the end?
  • What if we follow all 8 steps of Yoga: is it the end?
  • Vishwamitra and many Rishis were far ahead of many contemporary Yoga experts, but they also got confused and deviated at places. So what should be the approach to Yoga?
  • Arjun from the Bhagavad Gītā learnt all Yoga, the Vedas, and was trained to acquire vidya (knowledge) at the gurukul. He did years of tapasya (disciplinary spiritual practice, trying to enjoy hardship). Then, suddenly at the battlefield of Kurukṣetra (in the Bhagavad Gītā) where Bhagwan Krishna delivered the Gītā, what happened to Arjun?
  • Years after the war of Mahabharat, Arjun asked Bhagwan Krishna to revise the Gītā, but Bhagwan said, I can’t do an exact recap because it was a unique time where I became Yog-Yukt and delivered it. So what did Bhagwan do next?
