The Bhagavad Gita with Joseph Armstrong

Part scripture, part protest poem, the Bhagavad Gita is a call to courageous action in a world that needs healing. In this workshop, we’ll explore the Gita not as an abstract philosophy, but as a living guide for spiritual resistance, personal alignment, and collective liberation.

Rooted in the original Sanskrit text and informed by contemporary voices like Michelle Cassandra Johnson (Skill in Action) and scholar Shyam Ranganathan (Yoga- Anti Colonial Philosophy) , this module offers a grounded, justice-oriented lens on yoga’s most essential text. Together, we’ll examine what it means to live and act in integrity—on the mat, in the streets, and in our own hearts.

This 7.5 experience includes mantra chanting, interactive group work, self-inquiry, and lively discussion. No prior knowledge of the Gita required—just a willingness to engage.
