The Antaranga Sadhana of Jnana Yoga refers to the internal practices that a seeker undertakes to attain self-knowledge and realization of the ultimate truth. Jnana Yoga, often described as the path of wisdom or knowledge, emphasizes the discernment between the real and the unreal, the permanent and the impermanent. While its external aspects involve studying the scriptures, listening to teachings, and engaging in discussions on spiritual truths, Antaranga Sadhana focuses on the inward journey, cultivating the mind and intellect to perceive reality as it truly is. In the context of yogic texts, the foundational principle of Jnana Yoga is discrimination (Viveka) and dispassion (Vairagya). Viveka enables the aspirant to distinguish between the transient world of appearances and the eternal Self, while Vairagya fosters detachment from worldly desires and attachments. These qualities form the core of Antaranga Sadhana, guiding the practitioner to withdraw from external distractions and concentrate on the inner self. Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras, though primarily focusing on Ashtanga Yoga, acknowledge the importance of introspection and mental control as necessary for self-realization, which aligns closely with the Antaranga practices of Jnana Yoga. One of the central practices in Antaranga Sadhana is self-inquiry (Atma Vichara), as elaborated in the Upanishads and later by sages like Ramana Maharshi. Through consistent self-inquiry, the seeker questions the nature of the self, asking “Who am I?” This inquiry is not merely intellectual but a meditative contemplation that directs the mind away from identification with the body, mind, and ego, toward the awareness of the Atman, the eternal and unchanging reality. The Chhandogya and Brihadaranyaka Upanishads highlight such introspective practices as the means to transcend ignorance and realize the non-dual Brahman. Another aspect of Antaranga Sadhana is
