A verse-by-verse examination of the guide to self-transformation presented in the Bhagavad Gita

Reveals the scientific approach to personal development and spiritual enlightenment laid out in Krishnas advice to Arjuna

'The Bhagavad Gita' is one of the most widely read Hindu scriptures in the Western world. Taking the form of a dialogue between the warrior Arjuna and the divine Krishna on the eve of battle, it is concerned with the most profound aspects of social and religious duty, and the relationship of human beings to God.

The Bhagavad Gita is a gem so precious in India that many regard it not as a volume of sacred verse, but as a living manifestation of the Divine.

The Bhagavad Gita is often regarded as the Bible of India. With a gripping story and deeply compelling message, it is unquestionably one of the most popular sacred texts of Asia and, along with the Bible and the Qur'an, one of the most important holy scriptures in the world.

The Bhagavad Gita, also called The Song of the Lord, is a 700-line section of a much longer Sanskrit war epic, the Mahabharata, about the legendary conflict between two branches of an Indian ruling family.
