During the preparation of this work she was guided to do her dharma by the Gita's chapter 3 verse: It is infinitely better to do one's own duty, however deficiently one does it, than to do another's duty however perfectly one performs. Even if it were to require one's giving up one's very life for it, it is better to do one's own duty. To do another's duty is dangerous.
REVIEW
The Bhagavad Gita is a true scripture of the human race, a living creation rather than a book, with a new message for every age and a new meaning for every civilization.
