Vedantic
way of life: Karma Yoga ||
Bhakti Yoga ||
Gyana Yoga || Dyana Yoga
Dhyana Yoga is when we bring a meditative state of consciousness to
our Karma/or action. Thea says about meditation. In meditation we
learn to look at ourselves in totality. Awareness of body and the
stillness within. An awareness and observation of this stillness.

Observe feelings
Identify these feelings
Observe thoughts
Identify these
Observe sensory inputs
Be aware of them
Observe your expectations
Be aware of them
Observe, recognize your ambitio and desire.
Be aware of your ambitions.
Be aware of all in relation to the external social life and to the
inner life.
There are 2 process involved here.
(1) A process of observation and
(2) After observation we see our minds, hearts bodies as completely
still and serene.
When we were observing, we were observing the Karma (action) that is
continuously taking place inside, Karma is the movement which is
created, experienced and performed by and through the senses, the
mind, the ego, the attributes of life. We live in this dimension all
the time. When we become totally aware of the Karma, we also then
become aware of what we need, what we do not, what we like what we
dislike. And how all our lives are ruled by what we desire and what we
don't.
And with this of course comes the desire for particular results.
But the Karma Yogi and Karma Sannyasi perform action with full
awareness of the role of the senses, ego and emotion, and a
simultaneous detachment from these. By living life in this manner they
become keenly aware of the working of the inner lives-in terms of
energy use, vitality, prana, psychic abilities. Their actions are
therefore meditative combined with observation of the same action. The
action emanates out of harmonization of the tamsic, rajsic and sattwic
traits. And finally there is a final dropping of the "I" and
the idea that I am the doer. The action is being performed by the
senses outwardly and by the mind in the mental dimension. But they
have succeeded in distancing themselves from it and dropped the ego
and its link with the senses and its manifestation into predictable
behavior patterns. Once we renounce identification with our action-
and action begins to emanate from the harmonized experiences of body-
mind -spirit and we act according to the natural forces- then we have
accepted - ourselves- as we are - "I am that I am.
