Abstract

1.Yoga is development of detachment.
2.Yoga is to love all, feeling their pain and being detached with them.
3.When we don't feel pain of our own body, it is detachment.
4.Mahatma is one whose hear bleeds for poor people.
5.Detachment is being free from body, mind and intellect.
6.Just as we are looking at others, we need to be witness to ourselves.
7.Either we cling to everyone or withdraw from all.
8.Loving all is Bhakti and withdrawing from all is Jnana. There three ways to get detachment.
9.Dispossession to body or loving all, satiety and shocking revelation of truth give us detachment.
10.May we now meditate on smiling face of Krishna.
