About the Session
While discussing about Karma Yoga in the Bhagavad Gita, Sri Krishna expands the idea of Yoga to include every action in one’s life. This calls for a radical shift in one’s perspective involving attitudinal transformation on one side and refinement of the motivation on the other. This session is based on the experiences and insights of the speaker in his attempts to apply these concepts in day to day living as well as in work situation.
