अक्षरब्रह्मयोगः | Akṣara-Brahma-Yoga

The Yoga of the Imperishable Brahman

सर्वभूतस्थितं यो मां भजत्येकत्वमास्थित: । सर्वथा वर्तमानो5पि स योगी मयि वर्तते

sarvabhūtasthitaṁ yo māṁ bhajaty ekatvam āsthitaḥ | sarvathā vartamāno 'pi sa yogī mayi vartate ||

من استقرّ في رؤية الواحدية وعبدني بوصفِي قائمًا في جميع الكائنات—فذلك اليوغي، وإن تصرّف على شتّى الوجوه، إنما يحيا ويتحرّك فيَّ حقًّا. والقوة الأخلاقية لهذا التعليم أن العبادة الصادقة لا تنفصل عن الاعتبار الشامل: فمن رأى الإلهي في الجميع ظلّ سلوكه من الداخل راسخًا في العليّ الأعلى، ولو كان في خضمّ واجبات الدنيا.

Educational Q&A

True yoga is to be established in oneness and to worship the Divine as present in all beings; then, even while performing diverse actions, one remains inwardly rooted in the Supreme.

In the dialogue on the battlefield, Arjuna voices a teaching about the yogin’s state: devotion grounded in the perception of the Lord’s presence in all beings makes one’s life and action abide in the Lord.
