Self-Surrender and Self-Knowledge Cultivating Equanimity and Non-Attachment

Swami Brahmananda

10 WEEKLY SESSIONS, Wednesdays, 6:30-8:30pm ET

Course Description:

Join this 10-week course with Swami Brahmananda to learn what makes our spiritual life fulfilling and fully integrated with our everyday activities. Throughout this course you will learn how to overcome emotional disturbances and attachments and gain tools to cultivate mental equanimity and inner strength based on the teachings of Yoga and Vedanta as taught in the Bhagavad Gita. The teachings and practices are meant for new and experienced students alike.

The Bhagavad Gita is acclaimed as the teaching that guides us how to put in practice and apply directly in our life the sublime teachings of Yoga and Vedanta.

Throughout the Bhagavad Gita the attitude of surrendering oneself to the Divine and accepting life’s dualities and challenges as God’s grace is given as a means for attaining peace and equanimity. When the mind is thus purified from binding attachments and emotions one can attain Self-knowledge and abide in one’s true nature as the all-pervading, limitless Self.

What You'll Learn:

The course is an in depth study of the first and second chapters of the Bhagavad Gita with traditional commentary.

Some of the main points of the teachings we will be covering are:

"The teachings powerfully uncover the roots of suffering and the way to purification of the mind and liberation. Swami Brahmananda's teaching is inspiring, delightful, deep and lighthearted. It is a real honor to be his student."
