Patañjali , Yoga is a conscious process of gaining mastery over the mind field (The Citta ).
The scope of Yoga as portrayed in the
Bhagavadgītā and Upaniṣads is far more comprehensive.
As Swami Vivekananda puts it "It is a means of compressing one's evolution into a single life or a few months
or even a few hours of one’s bodily existence".

Chapter 2: Samkhya Yoga (The yoga of knowledge) - 72 verses. Concluding his reasoning and yet confused, Arjuna turns to Lord Krishna for discernment (2:7). Krishna begins countering Arjuna's objections. Krishna tells Arjuna that the eternal self is immortal and the body is designed to pass away (2:12-30). Explaining the three principles dharma, (right action) atman (individual self) and sarira (body), Krishna reminds Arjuna that, as a warrior, his duty is to uphold the path of dharma through warfare (2:31-38).
Vaisheshika darshana is one of the 6 darshanas in Indian Philosophy. It is very significant for its in depth understanding of Physical and Neuro science
Yoga Vashishtha of Valmiki is the record of how young Rama, the avatar of Lord Vishnu, attained Self-realization through the teaching of the sage Vashishtha.
The book is attributed to sage Valmiki, the same person who wrote the
Epic history of Rama, the Ramayana, which events take place after those in Yoga Vashishtha.
Yoga Vashishtha comprises of six books. Book I is about Rama’s dissatisfaction with everything the world has to offer. This Book is entitled vairagya, detachment. The emphasis is on the need for the aspirant to keep company with the wise, and to listen and reflect upon their teaching and the meaning of the scriptures.
Book II is about the qualities of the aspirant who longs for liberation, enlightenment. It introduces themes that permeate the rest of the book: dispassion, control over one’s desires, company of the wise, study of the scriptures, and self-inquiry.
Constantly throughout all of its seven Books (Book VI is in two parts), Yoga Vashishtha emphasizes that detachment or lack of desire is the essential preliminary to spiritual awakening.

Bhakti Sastri is a wonderful journey diving deep into four essential Vedic Texts as translated by Srila Prabhupada. The Course help students to enhance their scriptural understanding, purify consciousness and equip them with the tools to more competently deal with challenges of the life.
Tulasi-arati Kirtana
vrindayai tulasi-devyai
priyayai keshavasya cha
vishnu-bhakti-prade devi
satyavatyai namo namaha
Translation
(The first mantra is offering of obeisances to Shrimati Tulasi Devi. Srila Prabhupada explains that the Tulasi tree is a pure devotee of Krishna in the body of a plant. Worship of the Tulasi plant is very important in devotional service.) "I offer my repeated obeisances unto Vrinda, Shrimati Tulasi Devi, who is very dear to Lord Keshava. O goddess, you bestow devotional service to Lord Krishna and possess the highest truth."
namo namah tulasi krishna-preyasi namo namaha
radha-krishna-seva pabo ei abhilashi
ye tomara sharana loy, tara vancha purna hoy
kripa kori' koro tare brindavana-basi
mor ei abhilash bilas kunje dio vas
nayane heribo sada jugala-rupa-rashi
ei nivedana dharo sakhir anugata koro
seva-adhikara diye koro nija dasi
dina krishna-dase koy ei jena mora hoy
shri-radha-govinda-preme sada jena bhasi
Translation
O Tulasi, beloved of Krishna, I bow before you again and again. My desire is to obtain the service of Shri Shri Radha-Krishna.
Whoever takes shelter of you has his wishes fulfilled. Bestowing your mercy on him, you make him a resident of Vrindavana.
My desire is that you will also grant me a residence in the pleasure groves of Shri Vrindavana-dhama. Thus, within my vision I will always behold the beautiful pastimes of Radha and Krishna.
I beg you to make me a follower of the cowherd damsels of Vraja. Please give me the privilege of devotional service and make me your own maidservant.
This very fallen and lowly servant of Krishna prays, "May I always swim in the love of Shri Radha and Govinda."
Devotees circumambulate the Tulasi plant while singing the following prayer:
yani kani cha papani
brahma-hatyadikani cha
tani tani pranashyanti
pradakshina pade pade
"By the circumambulation of Shrimati Tulasi Devi all the sins that one may have committed are destroyed at every step, even the sin of killing a brahman."

The Chapter 3, entitled " Karma Yoga" is an elaboration of the Hindu ideal of "Selfless Action" first introduced by the famous verse 47 in Chapter 2--Karmanyevaadhikaarasthe-----. After hearing the exposition of various ways of attaining liberation in Chapter 2, Arjuna is really confused. Still deluded, he wanted a confirmation of his desire to quit the war & take-up Sannyasa. So he raises the question : If Krishna feels that the path of knowledge is better than the path of action, why is he being goaded to fight this war? He wanted a clear cut answer to his quest for a righteous life. In reply to this question, the Lord elaborates on the principle of Karma Yoga, the Yoga of selfless action in this chapter 3.

Chapter 6: Dhyana Yoga, or Atmasamyama Yoga (The yoga of self-control) - 46 verses.
Krishna explains the correct posture for meditation (6:11-15) and
how to achieve samadhi (6:24-27).
This chapter entitled "Atma Samyama Yoga" or" Yoga of Meditation" gives a wealth of details, explaining not only the technique of Meditation, but also the possible pitfalls & how to avoid them successfully. Though all Hindu Scriptures hint at the Path-of-Meditation as the way to reach the highest possibilities in life, nowhere is the topic discussed so thoroughly as here. A thorough study of this chapter gives ample direction & guidance to a seeker to reach the Highest, through Meditation.

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.
Homily: The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity Sunday 2024.docxJames Knipper
Countless volumes have been written trying to explain the mystery of three persons in one true God, leaving us to resort to metaphors such as the three-leaf clover to try to comprehend the Divinity. Many of us grew up with the quintessential pyramidal Trinity structure of God at the top and Son and Spirit in opposite corners. But what if we looked at this ‘mystery’ from a different perspective? What if we shifted our language of God as a being towards the concept of God as love? What if we focused more on the relationship within the Trinity versus the persons of the Trinity? What if stopped looking at God as a noun…and instead considered God as a verb? Check it out…
