Here’s a continuation of my Bhagavad Gita studies, for students and friends, now entering into a chapter-by-chapter overview.  Here is Chapter 1’s summary. 

Part 3 of 3: I’m making use of my podcast for my current class of Yoga Teacher Trainees (I teach yogic philosophy, history, etc) to help prepare them for the written exam at the end of the course. However, I think this stuff is interesting to others as well, if they are at all into yoga or Eastern philosophy and the like.

This is another re-wrapping of some of my course material about the Bhagavad Gita, which I usually teach to Yoga Teacher Training students.  This episode combines two context-related topics: authorship of the Gita, as well as its historical contexts and the greater Mahabharata story context from which the Gita is an exploded chapter.

I’m continuing my series on Bhagavad Gita reading guide materials, both for my current students and the generally interested audience out there.  This one focuses on clarifying some of the terms used to describe divinity and divine beings mentioned in the Gita, which are notoriously difficult for new readers to disentangle… especially given translation quirks.

Here’s another sampling of Bhagavad Gita lecture materials Matt (host of Dharma Knights podcast) has made elsewhere. The audio is compiled here in podcast format for convenient access and reference for Matt’s students, but also all the other listeners who have expressed interest in these assets. This episode focuses on the key concepts to understand before reading the Bhagavad Gita, most of which are assumed to be familiar to the Gita’s readers.

This is the second part of a coaching session Matt did with his partner Erin, the host of “Thrive Yoga Fit Transformational Podcast”. The first part is on her podcast. Matt is using the tools Erin teaches in her Thrive Coach School program, with his own particular flavor.

I’ve had some students and listeners (respectively) ask for more Bhagavad Gita content, and I’m happy to oblige! Here’s some content from a course I’m putting together about the Gita. This material is about some key terms that benefit from clarification, due to translation quirks and more.
