    Saṃmoha –
    “We are not clear what we are doing.
    Because we are not clear, memory wanders.”
    – TKV Desikachar on Bhagavad Gītā Chapter Two verse 63

    “The journey with and through the Bhagavad Gītā
    is one of a Vinyāsa Krama with three distinct stages.
    Firstly, the Pūrva Aṅga aspect of our journey in the ascension
    from confusion to clarity, as epitomised in the first hexad.
    Here we start from being disturbingly yoked to Viṣāda
    as in the first Chapter, and through a chapter by chapter
    process, we deepen our self-inquiry into the nature of who.
    In other words, this hexad is an exploration of our relationship
    with what we perceive and identify with as if our perennial self.
    Through chapters two to five, we learn how to approach and
    refine the practice of Dhyāna as in Chapter six, through which
    clarity arises in our efforts to cultivate a sense of an inner guide.”
    Paul Harvey on Gītārtha Saṃgraha of Śrī Yāmunācārya Śloka Two
