    Jnana Yoga: The Yoga of Knowledge

    Jnana yoga is called the path of knowledge, or the path of non-dualism. This yoga has become popular in the west, especially for people who wish to bypass the concept of a personal God and the excesses of organized religion. Of special note are the series of lectures on “Practical Vedanta” found in the book. This is not a section on dry theory that does not relate to the world, but an active guide to integrating Vedanta into our daily lives. Swami Vivekananda’s most important teachings on Jnana Yoga were given in the West.

    Education

    Vivekananda offers an approach that is the ideal way to educate our children….Quotes from the book…We want that education by which character is formed, strength of mind is increased, the intellect is expanded, and by which one can stand on one’s own feet….The old religion said that he was an atheist who did not believe in God. The new religion says that he is the atheist who does not believe in himself.. But it is not selfish faith. It means faith in all because you are all….Infinite strength is religion. Strength is goodness, weakness is sin….it is weakness that is the source of all selfishness….Physical weakness is the cause of at least one third of our miseries.
