Description
The message of the Gita has an important and a practical bearing on the problems of the modern age. It shows a way out of the complexities of the mind to complete and unfettered freedom of the Super-Mind. This path is not meant only for the few, it can be trodden by all who seek freedom from life’s entanglements.
Modern man is indeed besieged with great inner conflict and it is this conflict which has caused the utter disintegration of his psychological life. The disintegration within has caused unhappiness without. He is verily in search of inner integration and perhaps, for this, there can be no better guide than the teaching of the Bhagavad Gita. The creation of an Integrated Individual is indeed the purpose of the intensely dynamic message of the Gita.
In an age where the individual is becoming more and more insignificant due to the impacts of political, economic and social forces, the Gita brings to man a message of hope and leads to the regaining of his lost significance, and the spiritual regeneration of man is indeed the way to the creation of a happy society.
