Purpose: The purpose of this research case study is to systematically analyze the philosophical tenets of Jnana Karma Sannyasa Yoga as presented in the fourth chapter of the Bhagavad Gita. It aims to explore the synthesis of knowledge, action, and renunciation, and to evaluate their practical implications for modern ethical and spiritual living. Furthermore, the study seeks to assess the transformative potential and contemporary relevance of this integrated path using structured analytical frameworks like SWOC and ABCD. Methodology: This exploratory case study draws on information from reliable sources such as websites, Google Scholar, and AI-driven GPTs, analyzing the data through suitable frameworks aligned with the paper’s objectives. Results/Analysis: The SWOC and ABCD analysis reveals that Jnana Karma Sannyasa Yoga is a transformative, integrated path that resolves the tension between worldly action and spiritual renunciation. The core result is the establishment of a "new ethics" where morality is rooted in the individual's purified intellect (buddhi) and selfless motive, making action itself a non-binding sacrifice (yajna). This comprehensive framework demonstrates its enduring relevance by offering a psychological blueprint for individual resilience and a theological basis for collective ethical renewal and sustainable global living. Originality/Value: This research provides unique originality and value by employing SWOC and ABCD frameworks to analyze the philosophical tenets of Jnana Karma Sannyasa Yoga, moving the discourse from pure exegesis to a multi-dimensional, actionable appraisal. It offers a critical and pragmatic evaluation of the fourth chapter's integrated path, establishing its modern relevance as a comprehensive ethical blueprint for individual resilience and global ethical renewal. Type of Paper: Qualitative Exploratory Research Analysis.
