The Bhagavad Gita is an essential Hindu sacred text. . . . In it, the God Krishna leads the warrior Arjuna to a higher and deeper understanding of his spiritual nature and how that is to work itself out in daily life. For those who believe in a Higher Power, the Gita offers these four "yogic" ways of deepening a connection with the Divine.
1. Through the intellect. If your style is to research, read, study then your best access to the Divine is via those intellectual approaches. This one is called Jnana yoga.
2. Through the heart. If your style is a heartfelt approach to life, then your best access to the Divine is through adoration and expression of love for the Divine. This one is called Bhakti yoga.
3. Through action. If your style is one of energetic activities, then your best access to the Divine is via serving others and offering that as your commitment to the Divine. This one is called Karma yoga.
4. Through the mind. If you are a reflective and introspective person, then your best access to the Divine is through meditation. This one is called Raja yoga.
