Gandhi suggested that the external battlefield depicted, was a metaphor between the good and evil forces within man and a proper study of the text would help us to better discriminate between the opposing forces that operate within us. How to be more centered, see more clearly, become free from the endless patterns of opposition, awaken to dignity and eventually become free to realize that the source of Yoga is already present within us – if we can only remove the patterns of ignorance that obstructs it.
