How to study the Bhagavad Gita
The teachings of these two spiritual teachers, Sri Ramakrishna and Swami Vivekananda, will allow you to better understand the profound message of the Bhagavad Gita and even delve even deeper into their teachings on the Yoga Philosophy.
Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa (Calcutta, 1836-1886) is perhaps one of the most important spiritual teachers of humanity in recent centuries. His message of peace and, above all, that all religions are valid (principle of harmony between religions: religions are different paths to God, but they are not God), are laying the foundations for a new global ethic. Ramakrishna mainly followed Bhakti Yoga: The Yoga of Devotion, although inside he was all Jnana (Knowledge)
Course: Realization of the Bhagavad Gita
He was greatly influenced by Vedanta and therefore by the Bhagavad Gita. Sri Ramakrishna laid the foundation for Indian spiritual renaissance and notably influenced many Swamis. Gandhi considered him a reincarnation of God.

Swami Vivekananda (1863-1902), Swamiji, was a Hindu monk and chief disciple of Sri Ramakrishna. He was a key figure in the introduction of Vedanta and yoga to the West, the renewal of Hinduism, as well as the development of the idea of nationalism in colonial India.
At the first Parliament of the World's Religions (Chicago 1893), Swami Vivekananda gave a speech that is still remembered and considered fundamental in the dialogue between religions. He created the Ramakrishna Math and the Ramakrishna Mission with the aim of maintaining the eternal principles of Vedanta, lived and experienced by Sri Ramakrishna and expounded by Swami Vivekananda. Today they manage around 1,200 educational institutions (universities, faculties, polytechnic schools) and medical services (14 hospitals, 116 dispensaries...).
The Bhagavad Gita according to Swami Vivekananda
This ideology has three characteristics:
- It is modern, in the sense that the ancient principles of Vedanta have been expressed in modern language
- It is universal, that is, it is intended for all humanity
- It is practical, in the sense that its principles can be applied in everyday life to solve life's problems
Swami Vivekananda gave a new philosophy of work for the modern world based on the principles of the Bhagavad Gita.
India's National Youth Day, also known as Vivekananda Jayanti, has been celebrated since 1984 on January 12 in all Indian universities and colleges, the birthday of Swami Vivekananda.
Additionally, we have included teachings from Swami Sarvapriyananda, a Sannyasin director of the New York Vedanta Society of the Ramakrishna Order. He is one of the most renowned experts on the Bhagavad Gita and Vedanta.
