Job and the Bhagavad Gita

Yamas are how we relate to others.
Niyamas are how to live your personal life.

Judeo-Christian religions are deeply rooted in bipolarity.
Job is the oldest book in the Bible;
It is a conversation between God and the Devil about human nature.

Bhagavad Gita is an ancient Hindu tale;
It is a conversation between God and a soldier about life.

Job is about human suffering.
God tells Job that there is a universe beyond suffering, such that suffering is negligible.

Bhagavad Gita is about human suffering.
God tells the soldier that life is not as horrible as it might seem in any given moment.

Yamas are how we relate to others.
Niyamas are how to live your personal life.
