Paths to God

Living the Bhagavad Gita

De: Ram Dass

Narrado por: Paul Brion

For centuries, people have turned to the Bhagavad Gita for inspiration and guidance as they chart their own spiritual paths. As profound and powerful as this classic text has been for generations of seekers, integrating its lessons into the ordinary patterns of our lives can ultimately seem beyond our reach.

Now, in a fascinating series of reflections, anecdotes, stories, and exercises, Ram Dass gives us a unique and accessible road map for experiencing divinity in everyday life. In the engaging, conversational style that has made his teachings so popular for decades, Ram Dass traces our journey of consciousness as it is reflected in one of Hinduism's most sacred texts. The Gita teaches a system of yogas, or "paths for coming to union with God."

In Paths to God, Ram Dass brings the heart of that system to light for a Western audience and translates the Gita's principles into the manual for living the yoga of contemporary life.

While being a guide to the wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita, Paths to God is also a template for expanding our definition of ourselves and allowing us to appreciate a new level of meaning in our lives.

I love Ram Dass and appreciate all of his shares. I really appreciate the end with all of the important information and advice on how to do things

A giant leap forward

Ram Dass brings to life, in a way that only he can, the Bhagavad-Gita and the lessons at its core. This book is a giant leap forward for those struggling to understand their dharma, karma and/or finding happiness in life. If you have at all ever wondered what we’re doing here, or what your purpose is, you should read this book.

Absolutely beautiful

This book was pivotal in my awakening and is a must read for anyone seeking for deep spiritual insight.

Really?

I enjoyed the story but there were so many mispronounced Sanskrit words, I lost I treat towards the end.

loved it

A great description for westerners trying to understand and expand into another thought form.

A Ram Dass must read

Though this book is not so much about the Bhagavad Gita, it is a wonderful outlook through the lens of the Gita. I’ve found myself going back and re-listening. Ram Dass has been my guru/life coach/teacher/spiritual guide; lighting the way and telling me when I’m full of shit.

loved this book.

I have really enjoyed this book. this is a book I will listen to at least ten times. love it.

Great resource for students of The Gita

As the other reviewer notes, this is not an analysis of the Gita. It is a take on using the Gita in your life and spiritual progress. I have read the Gita many times and read various interpretations of the text. I would like this book LESS if it were an interpretation, I do not need more analysis of the text at this point. This is for those seeking to put the teachings of the Gita into action in their own loves. Beautiful book and I love it.

What a book

Ram Dass is one of the teachers I love listening to and this book is amazing the way he describes the Gita and his experience about his life. Highly recommend it
