We welcome you to attend a discourse in Tamil as we continue with our series of inspirational talks on the wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita. These talks are based on Bhagavad Gita’s interpretation by Sri Sri Paramahansa Yogananda in God Talks With Arjuna, the great Guru’s divinely inspired translation and extensive commentary on this beloved scripture. The talk will be given by senior YSS sannyasi Swami Suddhananda Giri.
In this discourse, Swami Suddhananda will draw on Yoganandaji’s interpretation of verses 2 and 3 of Chapter I to explain how to overcome bad habits by the calm, inner light of intuitive awakening, which can be cultivated by regular meditation.
Please note: This talk will be live-streamed from YSS Chennai Kendra and will remain available for viewing till Tuesday, February 17, 10 p.m. (IST).

About the Scriptural Commentary
Paramahansa Yoganandaji, the author of the spiritual classic Autobiography of a Yogi, interprets the Bhagavad Gita with divine insight. In his interpretation, exploring its psychological, spiritual, and metaphysical depths — from the subtle causes of everyday thoughts and actions to the grand design of the cosmic order — Yoganandaji presents a sweeping chronicle of the soul’s journey to enlightenment.
Clearly outlining the Gita’s balanced path of meditation and right activity, Paramahansaji shows how we can create for ourselves a life of spiritual integrity, serenity, simplicity, and joy. Through our awakened intuition, we come to know the right course to take at every crossroad on the path of life, to determine what shortcomings are holding us back and what positive qualities are moving us forward, and to recognize and avoid pitfalls along the way.
