Vedanta Philosophy Eight Lectures on Karma Yoga (the Secret of Work)
About this book
Ā Swami Vivekananda's Vedanta Philosophy: Karma Yoga is a seminal work that introduces Western audiences to the Hindu concept of selfless action. Through a series of compelling lectures, Vivekananda explains how work, when done without attachment to its rewards, becomes a spiritual discipline that purifies the heart and leads to liberation. Drawing on the Bhagavad Gita and Vedantic tradition, he argues that action is not an obstacle to spiritual life, but a powerful path to realization. His dynamic, inspiring style bridges East and West, combining ancient wisdom with a modern call to ethical and purposeful living. Karma Yoga remains one of the most accessible and influential texts in Indian philosophy and global spirituality.Ā
