- 17. The great secret • What is the one connecting thread through all of these? • There is one power that runs through all these • Without it – Yagna (Karma) is empty ritual – Jnana is mere philosophy – Bhakti is superficial religion • The word that denotes this power is frequently attached to the end of all three
- 18. The Gita reveals the answer What is the Gita’s Dharma? YOGA
- 19. What does Sri Krishna ask Arjuna to become? Answer: A YOGI
- 20. Why Yoga? • There are many types of yogas and many types of yogis • Each yoga consists of sadhana aiming at one or many siddhis or supernormal powers • The Gita’s yoga is to attain the highest siddhi – union with the Divine within oneself and in all

- 28. Life evolving is god growing Yoga is conscious evolution from man human to man divine or super-man
- 29. Life evolving is god growing “The animal is a living laboratory in which Nature has, it is said, worked out man. Man himself may well be a thinking and living laboratory in whom and with whose conscious co-operation she wills to work out the superman, the god. Or shall we not say, rather, to manifest God?”

- 32. Sri Aurobindo – 4th wave dharma sansthapana Developed a new synthesis of vedic, vedantic and tantric yogas called the PURNA YOGA or the Yoga of Integral Transformation
- 33. Sri Aurobindo – 4th wave dharma sansthapana A revolutionary new orientation: • Moksha is no longer the final goal, not just escape from life on earth but only the first step to a new divine life on earth • Veda-anta for man is veda-arambha for superman

Notes de l'éditeur
- Many say because India has something eternal in its core – after all it is called the Sanatana dharma Others say that Hindus have fought Also often leads to confusion – What really is hinduism?
- In Gita Jnana Yoga is identified with the path of the Sankhya yogins. The characteristic of the Sankhya or Jnana yoga is sanyas or renunciation.
- Sanyasis and Sadhus Save souls, abandon the world. Gives rise to nastika religions that even reject the veda and yagnas
- Establishment of monastic order – emphasis on renunciation
- Gita: Sarvam Karmakhilam partha jnane
- This is the Hinduism we all practice and which we generally associate with the name
- God Goddess – bhagavan / bhagavati, devotees bhaktas
- What we do today – going to temple, derasar or gurudwara. One could even include in this worship offered in non-Hindu religions like Islam and Christianity Left out many, for e.g. saints like Kabir and Mira-bai
- Knowledge is now something that is given by the grace of god Karma also is now the service of god in the world and even rituals take on a devotional aspect
- It must respond to the needs of the modern world and present times?
- Ramakrishna as the true Purohita – brahmana
- The bhagawad siddhi of the bhagavad yoga
- It must respond to the needs of the modern world and present times?
- Vivekananda: “Yoga is the compression of all evolution into one lifetime”
- Shankara and all those who followed him emphasized the Jnana yoga of the Gita Similarly others such as Madhvacharya and Chaitanya Mahaprabhu emphasized the Bhakti aspect of the Gita Lokmanya Tilak is the only one who chose to highlight the Karma aspect of the Gita
- Ascent as the great paradigm guiding Indian spirituality and world religions. Descent of god is the new paradigm given by Sri Aurobindo. This is what was missing in Hinduism. Vivekananda as forerunner.
- This is the message and the work of Mother India, it is the work of the evolution, the work of the universe and the work of god. The greatest work. Does America feel that democracy is meant only for America? Does Europe think that science and technology are meant only for Europe?
