Chapter 12, THE YOGA OF DEVOTION, starts on February 21, 2026
Every Saturday from 9:30 AM -10.45 AM EDT.
Live Online through Zoom.
Classes are open to all.
The twelfth chapter of the Bhagavad Gita explains the science of devotion and its application in day-to-day life.
Devotion is not blind faith, superstition, or mechanical ritual. It is an attitude of gratitude and surrender to the Almighty. In its purest form, devotion elevates a seeker from entanglement in the mundane world to the heights of spirituality, and from ignorance to the realm of knowledge.
True devotion expresses itself as a life of identification, harmony, and a sense of oneness with all beings. A true devotee is content, forgiving, and self-controlled; free from egoism; balanced in pleasure and pain; and firmly committed to the goal of Self-realization.
This chapter consists of twenty verses and is expected to be completed in ten sessions.
Participants will have opportunities to clarify their doubts through weekly discussion forums and bimonthly question-and-answer sessions.
Bhagavad Gita is a manual for life. It expounds the eternal principles of life and living which have been guiding the humanity for thousands of years. Its comprehensive knowledge equips one to live a dynamic life with peace and contentment.
Practical wisdom of Gita helps one to manage relationships, achieve success and productivity, deal with life’s challenges and live a meaningful life.
Above all, Gita guides one to the goal of Self-realization; the pinnacle of human perfection.
Now you have an opportunity to study and understand all the 18 chapters of Gita systematically under the guidance of a full time Vedanta teacher.
