Bhagavad Gita: The Song of God - Swami Mukundananda

Descriere Bhagavad Gita: The Song of God - Swami Mukundananda

The sacred Bhagavad Gita is much more than an epic for Hindus worldwide; in fact it is the ultimate universal guide to a life of peace and fulfilment. This song of God not only provides a deeply philosophical understanding of the world or Brahma Vidya but it also describes clear-cut techniques to implement spiritual precepts in everyday life. This is why it is also called Yog Shastra which includes methodologies-- karm yog jnana yog and bhakti yog-- for the practical application of spiritual knowledge. \n Set in the narrative framework of a discourse between Krishna and his disciple Arjun on the verge of the Mahabharat war the Gita is a comprehensive and easy-to-understand summary of the Vedic way of life. Frozen in inaction Arjun turns to Krishna for succour. Lord Krishna goes beyond his immediate dilemma to give Arjun a profound discourse on life both in theory and practice. In it he encapsulates the essence of spirituality and virtues like courage honour death love and duty. \n \n Including original Sanskrit verses and English transliterations as well as translations Swami Mukundananda's commentary on the Gita contains crystal-clear explanations scriptural references and highly engaging stories. Through the text of the scripture he brings forth a treasure-chest of life lessons for us to imbibe. With his characteristic charm Swami Mukundananda leads the reader page-by-page on the path to ever-lasting peace and happiness.\n
