Product Description
The Bhagavadgita or 'Sacred Song' holds
an assured place among the world's great
scriptures. In fourteen hundred lines of verse
the relationship of man with God - and the
intense joy of divine love - are celebrated
in a language that is precise and beautiful.
The Gita is a tale of action taking the form of a
dialogue between Arjuna and Krishna on the eve
of a battle. Krishna teaches the fearful Arjuna the
need for action and the requirement that he - like
all mankind - take his place in the world in love
and faith. Only through the search for God and
the Absolute will the true self be discovered.
This edition of the Bhagavadgita offers
the Sanskrit text as well as Radhakrishnan's
English translation and a commentary that
has become a classic. His clear understanding
of the profound wisdom contained within the
Gita ensures an equally clear vision of its
powerful and eternal message one that
cannot fail to touch the minds and spiritsof all those who reach for it.
