To present a view from the Bhagavad Gītā through which students can develop their own practice and appreciation of Yoga. The role of this Course is not to train students as Yoga teachers.

Even though the Bhagavad Gītā teachings and techniques developed in the Modular Courses can enhance any Yoga Teachers professional skills there is no requirement to teach or to intend to teach Yoga. This is not the role of the course.
In fact not everybody wants to or actually needs to become a Yoga teacher to further their practice and study. Here the priorities are towards personal development and thus questions relating to our personal practice and study are the priorities. These Courses reflects this viewpoint.
The aim is that we are all here in this course as students and it offers an opportunity for all teachers to step back from their teaching role and re-enhance their personal study and practice path.

Each Module offers a in-depth study of a Hexad or six Chapters of the Bhagavad Gītā. It is an opportunity for a Yoga student from any Yoga background or style to experience an in-depth exploration of each chapter of the Bhagavad Gītā over four 4 day modules.
A Bhagavad Gītā study workbook with a verse by verse index for each chapter is included as part of the Course Manual for all participating students.
In addition, to support the teaching of this important text we will be using selected verses from the Gītārtha Saṃgraha of Śrī Yāmunācārya. This is an important commentary on the Bhagavad Gītā which very succinctly summarises each of its eighteen chapters into eighteen verses. A relevant verse by verse reference will be provided as part of the course manual to help with our study. As such it will be invaluable support for the study of the Gītā.
