Description
Excerpt from Vedanta Philosophy: Eight Lectures on Karma Yoga (the Secret of Work)
Karma Yoga proclaims the dignity of la bor in a way peculiarly its own, and has words of help and encouragement for all grades of toilers in the world's great work shop.
To those who imagine that Vedanta teaches but one road to salvation, this book will be a revelation. Its language is un mistakable when it asserts over and over again that same height of spiritual realiza tion that is reached by him who gives up the world, is also attained by him who. Knows how to live in the world and be not of it.
Karma Yoga admits the necessity of work, but shows us how to be free from its bondage, how to work as masters, not as slaves. We can so transmute our com monest actions into spiritual treasure, as to glorify existence and make it a gateway to Paradise.
