505 _aKarma in its Effect on Character This chapter discusses how our actions shape our character. Swami Vivekananda emphasizes that each action leaves an impression on our mind, influencing our future behavior and destiny. Each is Great in his Own Place Here, the Swami explores the idea that greatness is not confined to renunciation or asceticism. He argues that one can achieve spiritual elevation while fulfilling one's duties in the world. The Secret of Work This lecture delves into the nature of work and its spiritual significance. Swami Vivekananda teaches that work performed selflessly, without attachment to results, purifies the mind and leads to liberation. What is Duty? Swami Vivekananda discusses the concept of duty, emphasizing that true duty is performed without selfish motives and is aligned with the welfare of society and the individual. We Help Ourselves, Not the World In this chapter, the Swami explains that acts of service are not meant to benefit others but to purify the self. By serving others, we overcome our ego and attain spiritual growth.
520 _aVedanta Philosophy: Eight Lectures on Karma Yoga is a foundational spiritual text where Swami Vivekananda outlines the philosophy and practice of Karma Yoga, the path of selfless action, as taught in the Bhagavad Gita and Vedantic philosophy. The central message is that spiritual liberation (moksha) is attainable not only through renunciation or meditation but also through selfless work done without attachment to results. Vivekananda redefines work as a means to spiritual evolution when performed with the right attitude.
