Chapter 3<\/a><\/p>\n << Chapter 3 verse 2<\/a><\/p>\n Simple<\/a><\/p>\n \u015br\u012b-bhagav\u0101n uv\u0101ca ‘Two kinds of Paths, for this world, O Sinless! were proclaimed by Me already, the j\u00f1\u0101na-yoga<\/em> for the S\u0101nkhyas, and the karma-yoga<\/em> for the Yogis.’<\/span><\/p>\n Thou hast not clearly understood what I already spoke, to the effect, that in this world, abounding as it is in differently charactered men, there are two Paths, the one of Knowledge (j\u00f1\u0101na<\/em>), and the other of work (karma<\/em>), suited to the capacities of the persons concerned. Not all men, who are born in the world, are born with moksha-ambition (or taste), and able enough (at once) to embark on the Path of Knowledge; but they must perform Works without aiming for reward, performing them, too, as so many acts of Divine Worship. So done, the contaminations (or evils) of the heart get extirpated; and then the sense will not be turbulent. A man so disciplined is then able to enter on the Course of Knowledge.<\/span><\/p>\n That all acts constitute acts of Divine Worship will be found stated further on in verse: \u2018Worshipping Him, by one\u2019s acts, from Whom all beings derive their impulses, -by Whom all this is pervaded-, man attains perfection.\u2019 (Bh: Gi: xviii-46<\/a>)<\/span><\/p>\n It has already been even seen that such verses as \u201cRight, thou have, but to work etc.,\u201d (ii-47<\/a>), ordain the performance of works with no anticipations of fruit; and then when one rises in wisdom beyond the turmoils of sense-objects, the Path of Knowledge is prescribed to him by such verses as \u201cWhen one gives up all desires etc.,\u201d (ii-55<\/a>). Hence j\u00f1\u0101na-yoga<\/em> (the psychic or Knowledge-Path) was prescribed for S\u0101\u1e47khy\u0101s<\/em>, and karma-y\u014dga<\/em> (Work-Path) for the Yogis<\/em>.<\/span><\/p>\n Sa\u1e47khy\u0101<\/em> means buddhi<\/em>=Knowledge or Wisdom, or reflection, or will. Those who possess this are called S\u0101\u1e47khyas<\/em>, that is those who are possessed of the wisdom concerning \u0101tm\u0101<\/em>. (Hence the mind-training or will-training-j\u00f1\u0101na-yoga<\/em>– is for the S\u0101\u1e47khyas<\/em>).<\/span><\/p>\n Those who are not fit for this course, are the Yogis<\/em>, or those who are fit to follow Karma-yoga<\/em>, or the Path of Works.<\/span><\/p>\n Hence there was not the least equivocation of language when it was asserted that for one who is subject to the distractions of phenomenal objects, Karma-Yoga<\/em> is suited, and for one who is not so subject, j\u00f1\u0101na-yoga<\/em> is suited.<\/span><\/p>\n It is now shown that, even though a wish for moksha arise in the man of the world, he is, yet, not competent enough to immediately enter on the j\u00f1\u0101na-yoga<\/em>-Path:-<\/span><\/p>\n >> Chapter 3 verse 4<\/a><\/p>\n archived in https:\/\/githa.koyil.org<\/a><\/p>\n pramEyam (goal) \u2013 http:\/\/koyil.org<\/a> SrI:\u00a0 SrImathE SatakOpAya nama:\u00a0 SrImathE rAmAnujAya nama:\u00a0 SrImath varavaramunayE nama: Chapter 3 << Chapter 3 verse 2 Simple \u015br\u012b-bhagav\u0101n uv\u0101ca loke \u2019smin dvi-vidh\u0101 ni\u1e63\u1e6dh\u0101 pur\u0101 prokt\u0101 may\u0101nagha j\u00f1\u0101na-yogena s\u0101\u1e45khy\u0101n\u0101\u1e41 karma-yogena yogin\u0101m ‘Two kinds of Paths, for this world, O Sinless! were proclaimed by Me already, the j\u00f1\u0101na-yoga for the S\u0101nkhyas, and the karma-yoga for the … Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13,24],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1589","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-chapter-3","category-original"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1589","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1589"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1589\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1589"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1589"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/githa.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1589"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
