Krishna teaches Arjuna about the four [[yoga]]s, or paths of union with God, and says that all the yogas should be practiced. The four yogas are knowledge ([[jnana yoga]]), meditation ([[raja yoga]]), work ([[karma yoga]]) and love and devotion ([[bhakti yoga]]). By self-knowledge, by meditation on the God within, by working the works of God to balance [[karma]] and increase good karma and by giving loving devotion, we fulfill the four paths of the [[four lower bodies]]—the memory body, the mental body, the desire body and the physical body.
