Sat Nadessa Darymaevna  (PhD (Philology), associate professor of Tuvan State University)

In the same period, Tolstoy develops an original doctrine, accumulating elements of the teachings of Vedanta, Yama, Niyama, Karma Yoga. This article presents the experience of a comparative analysis of the principles of Karma Yoga and the doctrine of Tolstoy. It is proved that Karma Yoga is the methodological basis of Leo Tolstoy's doctrine.

Keywords:Karma, «Bhagavad Gita», Karma Yoga, unselfishness, universal good, service to God, spiritual enlightenment.
