Product Description
(Trade Paper, 4.75 x 7.25, 2004, Religion/Hinduism)
The Bhagavad-Gita forms a small part-seven hundred stanzas-of the epic of the Mahabharata. The narrative uses an event, a war, as a setting to exemplify fundamental human conflict-understanding action and non-action, how to live in society, how to understand your place in the universal scheme, as well as explaining the secrets of meditation. The Bhagavad-Gita is still received in India as one of the great sources of spiritual wisdom that controls religious thinking. With lucid introduction to each chapter, Charles Johnston�s simple translation provides an extremely fascinating and enlightening interpretation o this great source of knowledge.
