Bhagavad Gita, the song of Bhagavad, having emanated from the mouth of Lord Krishna is considered sacrosanct by Hindus. Though scholars in their commentaries and glosses had often differed in their interpretations of the Gita verses and opposed each other, but none doubted its infallibility, and therefore its inviolability had never been challenged. Hence, efforts to review the book was considered profane and barred by fear of desecration. Rationality, though believed to be a rare human attribute, is not entirely unknown in the spiritual domain. Instead of suppressing the truth and killing doubts with imaginary fear of divine wrath, the Advaitin monk Paramhangsa Soham Swami penned Bhagavadgeetar shamolochona, a critique of Bhagavad Gita, in 1918 in his native tongue Bengali, which was published posthumously on his first death anniversary on 6th December, 1919. The English translation of the book, Critical Review of Bhagavad Gita, is being published in the centenary year. The most popular and widely-read book that claims to contain the essence of Hindu thought is Bhagavad Gita. It is venerated by all sections of Hindus and is universally referred to as a mine of infallible knowledge for establishing the veracity of diverse sectarian beliefs in the Hindu society. But is Bhagavad Gita worth all the hype? An impartial evaluation will reveal that the book has been skilfully marketed as a panacea for all real life problems and spiritual enlightenment. The Critical Review of Bhagavad Gita is unique because it has not only highlighted the fallacies and inconsistencies, but has also revealed how Gita has diverted from the concepts of the Vedas and Upanishads that form the real cornerstone of Hinduism. About the Author: Paramhangsa Soham Swami (1858-1918) was a follower of the Indian tradition of non-dualism or Advaita Vedanta. Known as Shyamakanta Bandopadhyay (Banerjee) in his pre-monastic days, he was renowned for his extraordinary physical strength and exemplary courage. After graduating from Dacca College, he chose an unusual vocation - wrestling with wild tigers. He was revered by Indians and Europeans as Professor Banerjee, the first tiger tamer of India. However, at the age of 41, renouncing wealth, family and fame, he became an ascetic. Under the tutelage of his master Nabin Chandra Chakroborty alias Tibbatibaba he discovered the Absolute Truth.

If there is one book that can claim to provide the solution to all problems of humanity, it is the holy Bhagavad Gita. Simply understanding the life-changing, ageless, and profound wisdom contained in this one book is enough to change the path of one’s life and bring it to the peak of perfection. The Bhagavad Gita is not a religious book and is not intended to be read and acted upon by the adherents of a particular religion. It’s a guidebook for life; a how-to manual. It is a medicine for the infected souls of the Kali-Yuga, the dark age. And there is no religion in medicine. The Bhagavad Gita is the most sacred conversation ever between Lord Krishna and his friend Prince Arjuna just before the beginning of the great war of Mahabharata, on the holy battlefield of Kurukshetra, where the Lord enlightens a bewildered Arjuna about the biggest truths of the universe. This dialogue is considered to contain the nectar of all Vedic scriptures, the most ancient scriptures of the world. By reading the Bhagavad Gita, you will discover answers to the most important questions in life, such as: - Who are you? - What is your purpose in life and how to fulfill that purpose? - Is there a God? If yes, who is God, and how to know and reach Him? - Is God one or many? - What is your relationship with God? - What is death and why you do not need to fear death? - What happens after death? - Do heaven and hell exist? - Is reincarnation real? - What is Yoga? What are the different types of Yoga? How to be a Yogi? - How does the Law of Karma work? - Why are we all living life the wrong way? And how you can live your life the right way? - How to see yourself and your life from the right perspective? - How to master your mind and get rid of negative emotions like worry, fear, anger, jealousy, and sadness for good? - How to be always happy? - What is the most perfect method of meditation? This summarized and simplified version of the Bhagavad Gita by Hari Chetan is the outcome of his two decades of experience in the field of Vedic philosophy. The following are some of the distinguishing aspects of this condensed version: - The conversational format of the Bhagavad Gita has been retained to ensure that the reader has a clear understanding of how the dialogue unfolded. - For the same purpose, the book has been divided into the same 18 chapters as the original version. - All the teachings of the Bhagavad Gita have been incorporated to ensure accurate understanding. - Repetition has been avoided unless essential. - The language has been kept simple without sacrificing essence and spirit. - Key Takeaways have been jotted down at the end of each chapter for easy retention and revision. - A separate chapter titled The Bhagavad Gita in a Nutshell has been included at the end which includes all the important teachings of the Bhagavad Gita in a point-by-point format grouped by topics. - The historical background of Mahabharata is included for perfect understanding. - To help you test your understanding, a printable workbook is included. All of this adds up to a comprehensive summary of the holy Bhagavad Gita in English. Read This Book to Uncover The Secret Wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita and Change Your Life Forever!

Originally published in 1939 by THE HUXLEY PRESS MADRAS, here comes a rather rare and controversial work penned by the respected author, Mr. P. Narasimham, a devout follower of Bhrukta Rahita Taraka Raja Yoga which was initiated by Master C.V.V, a spiritual yoga guru who conducted classes from 1912. There are many translations of the Gita in to English, but Mr. P. Narasimham deviated from the normal path of accepting Bhagavad Gita as an eternally acceptable philosophy and wrote this book way back in 1939 raising doubts about the same philosophy propounded in Bhagavad Gita and is considered highly controversial. It will stimulate readers to perceive the essence of the ancient message, persuade them to delve deeper into the subject of spiritual wisdom, the ancient and treasured teachings of the book Bhagavad Gita, also known as Song of the Lord!The Bhagavad Gita hailed as one of the greatest spiritual books around the world, contains sacred scriptures from ancient India and is considered to be a guide to such self-realization. Many authors have contextualized and explained the key concepts of the Hindu religious thought on its basis. But here is a book which is not just a basic translation of the essence of Gita but a critique, a rare work that examines the Gita and presents an alternate viewpoint. In the author's words, "To one unbiased by tradition, the whole Gita episode would appear to be quite artificial. But the value of the Gita is not so much in its relation to a historical fact; its abiding worth is in the exposition of the highly developed views of the Hindu mind on the great problems of human life which have determined the cultural tone of our civilization for thousands of years. To consider these views as varieties of philosophic opinion and examine them from a commonsense point of view is the only object of this study."A SPECIAL NOTE TO READERS: This book by no means is a work intended to disrespect or question the authenticity of the work of the Bhagavad Gita but an attempt by the author to understand the aim and essence of its doctrines, the various philosophic opinions it contains. With an objective and rational outlook, the author breakdowns the verses contained in the Gita. He takes us through the book while providing his thought-provoking views in a clear and concise fashion. It is a valiant initiative considering how sensitive any kind of observations made on such a spiritual book might be, and would be, even more so, during the earlier part of the 20th century.The book is timeless and very thought-provoking. [But for minor cosmetic changes, sincere effort has been made to keep the e-book as close to the original book published in 1939.]

A fresh, strikingly immediate and elegant verse translation of the classic, with an introduction and helpful guides to each section, by the rising American poet. Born in the United States into a secularized Hindu family, Amit Majmudar puzzled over the many religious traditions on offer, and found that the Bhagavad Gita had much to teach him with its "song of multiplicities." Chief among them is that "its own assertions aren't as important as the relationships between its characters . . . The Gita imagined a relationship in which the soul and God are equals"; it is, he believes, "the greatest poem of friendship . . . in any language." His verse translation captures the many tones and strategies Krishna uses with Arjuna--strict and berating, detached and philosophical, tender and personable. "Listening guides" to each section follow the main text, and expand in accessible terms on the text and what is happening between the lines. Godsong is an instant classic in the field, from a poet of skill, fine intellect, and--perhaps most important--devotion.

For centuries, readers have turned to the Bhagavad Gita for inspiration and guidance as they chart their own spiritual paths. As profound and powerful as this classic text has been for generations of seekers, integrating its lessons into the ordinary patterns of our lives can ultimately seem beyond our reach. Now, in a fascinating series of reflections, anecdotes, stories, and exercises, Ram Dass gives us a unique and accessible road map for experiencing divinity in everyday life. In the engaging, conversational style that has made his teachings so popular for decades, Ram Dass traces our journey of consciousness as it is reflected in one of Hinduism’s most sacred texts. The Gita teaches a system of yogas, or “paths for coming to union with God.” In Paths to God, Ram Dass brings the heart of that system to light for a Western audience and translates the Gita’s principles into the manual for living the yoga of contemporary life. While being a guide to the wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita, Paths to God is also a template for expanding our definition of ourselves and allowing us to appreciate a new level of meaning in our lives.

It is up to you to pick the one that you are suited to.' The Bhagavad Gita is a profound book from India that people have cherished for over 2500 years.

Roopa Pai's spirited, one-of-a-kind retelling is engaging, easy to grasp, and leaves a lasting impact. After you finish reading, you'll find yourself contemplating its wisdom and feeling a sense of inner strength.
