The word “Yoga” stands for the Union with the Self. It is a process for self-regulation of our Body (Physical Activities), Mind (Emotions) and Intellect (Thoughts and Ideas). Vedic Philosophy emphasizes disciplined action (Karma Yoga), faith in a larger cohesive order in the Universe (Bhakthi Yoga) and reflection and analysis through objectivity and non-attachment (Jnana Yoga). These three pathways for Yoga are interconnected.
We can also see Jnana Yoga as an elegant and logical compliment to the Socratic Method used for reasoning and analysis in all professional activities. This practice oriented approach for Jnana Yoga as a compliment to the Socratic Method are presented in the following slides!
