The Gita occupies a unique place in the history of Indian literature and thought in that it reconciles dharma and moksa. This interesting reconciliation of the two otherwise contradictory ideals, offers a system which intertwines social responsibility and action in the world with a deep sense of spirituality and relinquishment of worldly attachments. Dharma is situated in the worldly and finite level, whereas moksa is situated in a completely different and higher level which is infinite and absolute.Besides this two tiers underlying the Gita which could be considered the finite and the infinite or alternatively, dharma and moksa- there is a third tier serving as an intermediate one connecting the two tiers, which would otherwise be unrelated to each other due to an insurmountable gap separating the two. The question may now be raised,as to what means does the Gita offers the practitioner who desires to make progress in the process of self- realization. Therefore, it will be my enquiry into what practical means or system does the Gita offers the individual or the community who aspires to practice this transformative path.

Dharma, moksa, yoga,
