Yoga-catuṣṭaya

Four paths for different temperaments

Learn how karma, bhakti, jñāna and rāja yoga can support different temperaments without becoming rival camps.

01

TEXTUAL ANCHOR

Begin with a traceable source

Bhagavad Gita chapters 3, 6, 9 and 13. The source is an anchor for study, not a claim that this modern guide is a verbatim passage or the only valid interpretation.

02

DAILY PRACTICE

Turn the teaching into conduct

Try one week each of selfless action, devotion, inquiry and meditation; record which practice makes you kinder and steadier.

03

DISCERNMENT

Keep the practice humane

A preferred path does not excuse neglect of ethics, health or duty.

04

REFLECTION

A question to carry

Which discipline corrects my strongest imbalance?

Answer with one observable example. Spiritual maturity is better tested through truthfulness, steadiness, compassion, repair and useful action than through claims of status.
