Sankhya Yoga

The Yoga of Knowledge

Sanskrit Verse

Dehino'smin yatha dehe kaumaram yauvanam jara, tatha dehantara-praptir dhiras tatra na muhyati

Translation & Meaning

As the embodied soul continuously passes through childhood, youth, and old age, the soul similarly passes into another body at death. A sober person is not bewildered by such a change.

Key Teachings

  • The soul is eternal and unchanging
  • Physical changes don't affect the soul
  • Death is merely a transition
