S5E8 Devotion as Freedom
This episode investigates the nuances involved in the devotional freedom offered by the Bhagavad Gita as the crowning jewel of the yogic endeavor. We look at material from chapter 18, which clarifies the nature and scope of the transformation that occurs when the highest devotion is attained by the practitioner: specifically, one is transformed at the levels of identity, perception—or the mind and the senses—and with respect to subsequent action, or work, in the world. Most importantly we discover that all of this is the result of the influx of God’s Grace into our inmost heart.

S5E7 Liberation in Classical Yoga
This episode focuses on the idea of liberation in Patanjali's Yoga Sutra (Patanjala-yoga-shastra). We touch a little on how Patanjali's system inherits key aspects from the Upanishads, and then focus on the first four sutras of chapter one, which constitute what is known as the classical definition of yoga. From these foundational sutras, it is possible to get a solid sense of how Patanjali frames a simple definition of Yoga, the nature of the problem of ignorance that Yoga intends to address, and the nature of the liberated state. Crucially, the discussion lends nuance - in a surprising way - to the common notion that Yoga - as "union" - is the desired end of our practices.

S5E6 Traditional Enlightenment
This episode investigates notions of liberation from the traditional early and late Vedic literature, with an emphasis on the nuance that exists in the late Veda, also known as the Upanishads. In particular, we present the views of the three great commentators: Shankara, Ramanuja, and Madhva. This investigation reveals subtle and exciting differences in how the Upanishads have been interpreted, and what this means for conceptions of enlightenment.
