The Bhagavad Gita by Richard Prime

In the history of India, the "Bhagavard Gita" occupies a unique place as the one scripture common to all Hindus. It is short, simple and to the point, and draws the diverse tenets of Inidan philosophy into a unified whole. The "Bhagavard Gita" was composed on a battlefield and addresses life's basic dilemmas, such as how to deal with adversity, the search for peace of mind, and being active in the world without getting entangled by karma. The "Gita" teaches that the most difficult battles we all have to face is the one we must fight with our own minds and senses. It offers encouragement and advice to those who aspire to a better life. The text is arranged as a conversation of questions and answers between God and the soul, represented by Krishna and Arjuna. Krishna's teaching are presented in 18 chapters. These answer essential questions such as: the nature of the soul; the mysteries of reincanation and karma; the yoga of daily action; how to meditate; the art of seeing the Divine Spirit present everywhere; the cosmic form of God; gaining freedom from the cycle of rebirth; and union through God through love.
