Overview

Spanning 160 pages, this book serves as a vital component of the Bihar Yoga literature. It systematically uncovers the deeper yogic sadhanas hidden within the epic battlefield setting, bridging ancient scriptural definitions with modern clinical psychology.

Meet The Author

Dr. Rishi Vivekananda (1943–2020) was an Australian physician and consultant psychiatrist with over 40 years of medical experience. Initiated into poorna sannyasa by Swami Satyananda in 1976, he dedicated his life to traveling the world to demonstrate the profound synergy between modern science, mental health, and classical yoga systems.

Book Summary

- The book demystifies the setting of the Bhagavad Gita, explaining that the battlefield of Kurukshetra is a metaphor for the psychological struggles raging inside our own minds. Instead of viewing Arjuna's sudden anxiety and collapse as a purely historical event, the author analyzes it as a classic acute situational breakdown. The text outlines how Sri Krishna systematically uses the four major branches of yoga (Karma, Bhakti, Jnana, and Raja) to rebuild Arjuna's broken ego and restore focus. Written in an easy style full of gentle humor, the book provides targeted reflections and behavioral exercises to help readers eliminate chronic anxieties, balance everyday desires, master self-doubt, and discover a path toward lasting mental peace and liberation in modern daily life
