BHAGAVAD GITA, pt. 15: Withdraw Sensory Awareness to Overcome Temptations

Chapter 2, v. 58-59 The teachings in these verses suggest that suppressing physical and mental urges is not the best approach to overcoming temptations. Instead, withdrawing sensory awareness from tempting circumstances and being centered in the soul and dispassionate can help us develop intellectual discernment and regulate sensory inclinations and desires. The benefits of consistent practice of contemplative meditation can help us turn the focus inward, leading to mental, emotional, and physiological balance. Discover how developing spiritual discipline can help us overcome temptations, attract circumstances that align with our highest good, and ultimately lead to spiritual growth.
