Karma Yoga: A Practical way of Spiritual Life The book titled \"Selfless Action\" subtitled \"Compilation and critical analysis of the practical philosophy of Karma Yoga\" by G Sankarasubba Ayyar is a critical analysis of the Bhagavad Gita from the author's personal perspective. The author looks at the philosophy of Bhagavad Gita from the Karma Yoga perspective. A remarkable feature of the present volume is that the Karma Yoga is not treated on mere scholastic lines, but as a practical way of spiritual life, in keeping with the structure of the Gita, the book is divided into 18 sections as per the chapters of the Gita. Each chapter is subdivided thematically which makes it very reader-friendly. The author makes a running commentary on the themes, quoting from the verses of the Gita in an apt way. Together with this, the various technically appearing words of the Gita are taken up and explained from the author's perspective. Another notable feature of the book is that it does not strictly adhere to any particular classical school of Indian Piilosophy. The author advocates his own spiritual experience of practising Karma Yoga throughout his life, and 'offers interpretation of the Gita in his original way. The author quotes a number of illustrations and real-spiritual experiences in making his point on the Gita. In one way, it is an interpretation of Gita removed from all previous scholastic bias. The central claim of the author is that the entire Gita advocates the Karma Yoga, not just in the well-known third chapter; but, in all the eighteen chapters consistently. The book is a worth read for any serious aspirant of spirituality and to the inquisitive of the Bhagavad Gita as well.
