July Theme
Hands in the World, Heart in the Divine
Finding Liberation Through the Life You’re Already Living
In Chapter 5 of the Bhagavad Gita, Arjuna asks a timeless question: Should I renounce the world to find peace, or can I stay in it and still be free? This module explores Krishna’s answer and what it means for modern seekers walking the householder path.
You’ll learn:
- The differences between renunciation (sannyasa), action (karma yoga), and knowledge (jnana yoga)—and how they work together
- Why karma yoga is especially powerful for householders and those actively engaged in life
- What renunciation can look like for someone who doesn’t live in a monastery or cave
- How to experience liberation not by escaping life, but by living it with intention and surrender
- How devotion and insight arise naturally through conscious action
This module offers a grounded, heart-centered approach to yoga that honors the life you’re already living. Perfect for anyone seeking peace, purpose, and freedom without walking away from their responsibilities.
June Theme
Pathways to Peace: An Introduction to God and Ishta Devata Through the Yogic Lens
What is God in the context of yoga? Is it a deity? A force? A form? Or something beyond all forms?
In this accessible yoga philosophy exploration, we’ll look at how the yogic tradition understands the Divine—not as a doctrine to be believed, but as a support to be experienced.
Drawing from Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras and Krishna’s teachings in the Bhagavad Gita, we’ll explore the concept of Ishta Devata, or chosen form of the Divine, and why it’s offered as an aid to steady the mind and open the heart.
Together we’ll explore:
- Patanjali’s view of Ishta Devata as a tool for spiritual practice
- How to relate to a personal form of the Divine without needing to be religious
- How the yogic concept of God differs from the Christian framework
- Krishna’s teaching that many paths and forms lead to the same Truth
- When and why one might connect with a formless versus a with-form expression of the Divine
This is not a theology class or a belief system you must adopt. It’s an invitation to explore one of yoga’s many pathways. If you already have a connection to God or a particular religion, this path doesn’t require you to give it up—it can be honored, supported, and even deepened through your practice.
Come with curiosity, and leave with a clearer understanding of how yoga honors your personal way of walking toward the sacred.
