Introduction to Yogic Philosophy
Long before yoga became something we practiced on a mat, it was a philosophical inquiry into what it means to be human: How do we understand ourselves? Why do we suffer? What keeps us bound? And what might it mean to become truly free?
Join us for an Introduction to Yogic Philosophy, a brief journey through some of the foundational texts and ideas that shaped the yoga tradition.
We’ll trace the evolution of yogic thought through the Vedas, the Upanishads, the Bhagavad Gita, and Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras, exploring how the questions and teachings of one era grew into the next.
Along the way, we’ll introduce some of the central concepts of yoga philosophy—including dharma, karma, samsara, moksha, the gunas, the kleshas, the nature of the Self, and the path toward liberation.
No prior study of yoga philosophy is necessary. Whether you are a longtime practitioner, a curious beginner, or simply someone who has wondered what yoga is really about, this is an invitation to look beyond the physical practice and into the deeper tradition beneath it.
Yoga is not simply something we do.
It is a way of asking questions.
Come explore some of the questions that have been asked for thousands of years.
