KARMA YOGA by Henry Ford [Paperback]

Demystifying Action and Enlightenment: Karma Yoga by Swami Vivekananda (Transcribed by Joseph Josiah Goodwin)

While the title page might say "Karma Yoga by Henry Ford," this insightful book actually features the profound teachings of Swami Vivekananda, a key figure in introducing Hinduism to the West.  Transcribed by Joseph Josiah Goodwin, Karma Yoga delves into the core concept of Karma (action) and its role on the path to enlightenment.

Originally Delivered as Lectures:

Published in 1896, Karma Yoga captures the essence of Swami Vivekananda's lectures given in New York City during the winter of 1895-1896.  These talks explored the philosophy of Karma as presented in the Bhagavad Gita, a sacred Hindu text.

Karma as a Path to Liberation:

Swami Vivekananda sheds light on the concept of Karma, not merely as work or action, but as a mental discipline.  He explains how Karma Yoga can guide individuals towards fulfilling their duties while transcending self-interest.  This selfless service to the world, according to Swami Vivekananda, becomes a powerful tool for achieving enlightenment.

A Valuable Resource for Spiritual Seekers:

Karma Yoga offers a timeless message for anyone interested in exploring Eastern philosophy and its practical applications in daily life.  Whether you're a seasoned yogi or a curious beginner, this book provides valuable insights into the transformative power of Karma Yoga.

Addressing the Inaccuracy:

It's important to note that Henry Ford did not write this book.  The title page might be a misprint or the result of attributing the work to a more recognizable name in Western society.
