The Psychology of the Bhagavad Gita: Understanding the Dynamics of Suffering and ealing

Suffering and healing are both ends of a continuum known as life, with a human being standing in the middle. The actions we choose and the route we follow determine where we will go; whether we will heal and succeed in our lives or suffer as a result of our actions. This research seeks to investigate how the Bhagavad Gita differs from the Gospels in addressing the reality of suffering and transformational healing methods. The narrative analysis approach of qualitative research is used in this study to investigate and identify themes and subthemes that describe the notions of suffering and healing. This research delves deeply and specifically into how the Bhagavad Gita understands suffering and healing. The discussion section of this study also provides specific highlights from several chapters of the Bhagavad Gita that, when applied to human lives, might help enlighten the way to healing.
