Gnana Yoga is the process of converting intellectual knowledge into practical wisdom. It is a discovery of human dharma in relation to nature and the universe. Though Gnana Yoga, one can attain the highest meditative state and inner knowledge.
In general terms, Gnana means Knowledge. But in Yoga it means the process of meditative awareness which leads to illuminative wisdom. You cannot get answers to eternal questions, but this yoga which is part of meditation helps in self-realization and self-questioning.
Some components or objectives of Gnana Yoga are:
Self-Awareness leading to Self-Analysis;
Not just belief but realizing;
Experiencing knowledge;
Realizing the personal nature;
Developing wisdom;
Experiencing inner unity and journey
Some suggested readings on this topic are: Yoga Darshan, Yoga Sadhana, Panorama Series, etc.
