Description
With its introduction, appendix and a helpful marginal commentary, this new verse translation faithful to the original Sanskrit text, is an ideal edition for the general reader.
The Bhagavad Gita, the Lord's Song, is the best known and most widely read Hindu scripture in the world. Taking the form of a dialogue between the warrior Arjuna and the divine Krishna on the eve of a battle, this immortal epic is concerned with the most profound aspects of the eternal relationship between humanity and God.
In its eighteen short chapters the Gita explores the spiritual struggle of the human soul, the search for God and the true self, and eternal life, to culminate in an unparalleled vision of God the omnipotent.
