The problem of being limited and the desire to seek freedom from this limitations is mumuksha. There fore Moksha ( freedom from samsara) is for oneself only. It cannot be imposed. The self is already free and there fore Knowing the self exactly as it is will be an achievement of the already achieved.

The yoga of attitudes, Bhahavan Sri Krishna gave the vision of karmayoga to Arjuna because a prepared mind can get the knowledge and method of preparing the mind requires yoga buddhi to live a life of karmayoga. Bringing an attitudinal change is impossible without understanding,so let use try to see what it is all about.

The central idea is beautiful: Karma-yoga is both a way of living and a means of preparing the mind for Self-knowledge. The attitudinal change it requires cannot be sustained by mere instruction; it must arise from understanding.

The Yoga of Attitudes — Karma-yoga

Bhagavān Śrī Kṛṣṇa unfolded the vision of Karma-yoga to Arjuna because a prepared mind is receptive to Self-knowledge. And preparing the mind requires a change in attitude—a shift in how we understand and respond to life.

Karma-yoga is not merely about what we do, but the attitude with which we act. Through *yoga-buddhi*, we learn to act with responsibility, offer our actions to Īśvara, and receive their results with *prasāda-buddhi*.

But an attitudinal change cannot be sustained by mere instruction; it must come from understanding. So, let us explore what Karma-yoga really means, how it works, and how we can live it in our everyday lives.

**The purpose is not merely to change our actions, but to cultivate a mind that is ready to understand the truth of ourselves.**

ॐ तत् सत् 🙏

A subtle but important point from the Bhagavad Gītā: Karma-yoga does not itself produce mokṣa; it prepares the mind for the knowledge that removes self-ignorance.

when we look into the realities of the world as a whole its existence need to have a reality or substratum on which every thing exists. what keeps changing require a changeless base. Just as a pot, if it is made of clay then clay happens to be the 'satyam' and pot is 'mithya'

Actually the individual self is the total and if I can dicover the truth about oneself then that self being my reality, I am free. the limitations of what is not 'I' doestn't hold any reality. This is vedanta which is the only 'pramana' for it. Being a means of knowledge vedanta doesn't contradict any other pramana.

Vedānta is not a philosophy that changes your life; it is a vision that corrects your understanding of yourself.

I am not a limited individual trying to complete myself through the world.

I am the complete, limitless Awareness in whose presence the individual, the world, and Īśvara are known.

In a little more detail:

1. What is the problem? — Ignorance (अविद्या)

I take myself to be the body–mind–person and therefore experience myself as limited, incomplete and dependent.

2. What does Vedānta do? — It gives a means of knowledge (प्रमाण)

The Upaniṣads, unfolded by a competent teacher, reveal what cannot be discovered merely by experience:

तत्त्वमसि — तत् त्वम् असि

You are That.

3. What is discovered? — I am Brahman

अहं ब्रह्मास्मि

I am Brahman—the limitless reality.

This is not becoming Brahman. I was never anything other than Brahman. The discovery is only the removal of the mistaken identification.

4. What about the world? — Mithyā (मिथ्या)

The world is not dismissed as nonexistent. It is dependent reality—dependent upon Brahman, just as a wave is dependent upon water.

5. What happens to life? — The circumstances need not change. The vision changes.

Pleasure and pain, gain and loss, success and failure continue to belong to the changing order. But their capacity to define me is understood differently.

So, in one sentence:

Vedānta is the knowledge that I am the limitless Self, and that the entire universe of changing names and forms is mithyā, dependent on that Self.

Or, even more compactly:

“Nothing has to become different; I have to see what is already true.”

Chanting of 12th Chapter

Bhagwan Shree Krishna's Birthday

Best wishes on the this day of Onam 2026

Three things are very rare in this world to accomplish. Birth as a human being, there after the maturity to seek the ultimate goal of life the "moksha" the self knowledge and a teacher (Guru) to bless by giving the vision of Vedanta the self knowledge. It doesn't happen always.Blessed are they who got these three things in life. Today being the Pradosha day let there be the blessings of Lord Parameswara for every one and for those who come to listen to this in particular.

mahashivaratri ( महाशिवरात्री )

Have a clear vision about success in life so that no regret about the past or worries of the future. The present becomes live and available for life to manifest to its maximum possibilities. Bhagavan Sri Krishna in Bhagavad Gita made Arjuna to stand up to the task in front of Him. If Arjuna could resolve his confusion it is the blessings of Bhagavans teachings only.No other miracle can do that. There fore it is the greatest miracle.. when you understand something it is nothing but a miracle. Because there are people who cannot see what you already see. The Gayatri mantra japa is also for invoking Isvaras grace to have that brilliance which can give us the capability to know and to retain what we already knew. The mantra is known to reveal the ultimate truth for which we may look in to the Gayatri mantra much more deeply at another time. We may use this mantra as a prayer for blessings and brilliance.. . . . . . . Swami Nijatriptananda https://anchor.fm/nija3pta/message

chant with devotion to the Lord Parameswara in the form of the Guru Sri Dakshinamurthy and be a recipient of blessings for the pursuit of moksha. no doubts in the mind will remain

om namo bhagavate Dakshinamurthaye mahyam shriyam medhaam prajnaam prayachha swaha.

Lord krishnas teaching is very clear and makes it clear again that Dharma has a role to play in ones life. It prepares the person but never becomes a barrier on our way to reach the ultimate goal of moksha. One can discover the inner freedom through a mind which is ready to recieve the knowledge.

All our actions "karma" can become an offering to the Lord. This is a healthy attitude to take to action even in difficult situations. What is to be done is done cheerfully.

नागेन्द्र हाराय...

Om NamahShivaya "Japa" on MahaShivaratri day.

iswara's presence is seen through the order which is the manifested universe. iswara is non-seperate from the creation.Hence the presence of iswara is immediately percieved by this vision. One becomes relaxed as a result.

One has to learn to stay with the vision for a length of time in the process of understanding the self being the whole.
