Download or read book Bhagavad Gita in English written by Hari Chetan and published by Hari Chetan. This book was released on 2021-08-15 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If there is one book that can claim to provide the solution to all problems of humanity, it is the holy Bhagavad Gita. Simply reading this book and comprehending the life-changing, ageless, and profound wisdom contained in its 701 magnificent verses is enough to change the path of one’s life and bring it to the peak of perfection. That is why, after hearing this transcendental discourse of Lord Krishna, Arjuna exclaims to Him, “O Achyuta (The Changeless One), my delusion is destroyed, and my memory (about one’s true identity) has been regained by me through Your grace. I am firmly situated; my doubts are gone. I will now act according to Your word.” [Bhagavad Gita 18.73] 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? Hari Chetan’s translation of the Bhagavad Gita 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 English translation: - All the verses of the Bhagavad Gita are accurately translated from the original Sanskrit texts. - The translations are presented in their authentic form, free from any sectarian bias. - The translations are kept simple without sacrificing accuracy, essence, and spirit. - The gaps arising while translating verses from Sanskrit to English have been taken care of to preserve the intended meaning of each verse. - Context has been given due importance while establishing the meaning of each word with the aim of providing correct interpretation. - To facilitate self-explanatory translations, additional explanations are given in parentheses in the verses. - Additional explanations are provided in the form of notes at appropriate places. - 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 complete translation of the holy Bhagavad Gita in English. Read This Book to Uncover The Secret Wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita and Change Your Life Forever!

Download or read book SHRIMAD BHAGAVAD GITA written by Haresh Bakshi and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2005-09-28 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why one more translation of the Gita? This book is a faithful translation of the Gita in simple English. The reader will find that frequent use of comma has made this translation easier to follow. This translator has retained many of the traditional Sanskrit words, like dharma, even in English translation. This is because such words are difficult to translate: the translation in such cases is far from accurate, and, in fact, can even be misleading. To overcome this problem, this translator has given separate explanatory notes for such words, instead of merely giving their “common” translation.The other problem arises from the fact that in Sanskrit, a single word like ‘brahman’ can have several different meanings. Here again, this translation of the Gita faithfully gives different traditional translations and meanings in their proper context and perspective. Lastly, both the Sanskrit text and its Roman transliteration have been presented after separating almost every word by removing all euphonic junctions of final and initial letters (sandhi), also called the phonetic combinations of words. This has increased readability of the text tremendously. Thus, this book takes care of the common as well as special problems that a reader encounters during his study of the Gita. In addition, much useful relevant information given in several helpful indexes and the appendices in this compilation will make reading the Gita easier and more interesting. After all, the Gita is meant to be studied by all.In this book, the original text of the Gita has been reproduced in Sanskrit. For the benefit of the readers who do not read the devanagari (Sanskrit) script, the entire Gita has also been reproduced in Roman transliteration scheme.

Download or read book Godsong written by Amit Majmudar and published by Knopf. This book was released on 2021-03-30 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Download or read book Managing by the Bhagavad G t written by Satinder Dhiman and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-11-27 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing upon the timeless wisdom of the Bhagavad Gītā, a philosophical-spiritual world classic, this professional book highlights the spiritual and moral dimensions of management using an inside-out leadership development approach. It interprets the Bhagavad Gītā’s teachings on the personality types and psychological makeup of managers and employees; self-knowledge and self-mastery; and the leadership concepts of vision, motivation, and empowerment. This book covers topics such as training of the mind, ethical leadership, communication, stress management, and corporate social responsibility (CSR). Collectively, the enclosed contributions provide managers with an enhanced outlook on management functions such as leading, planning, organizing, and controlling in today’s organizations, particularly those run by knowledge workers. Management research in the 20th century has mainly focused on the industrial paradigm characterized by a hierarchical structure of authority and responsibility with an individualistic focus on the personality of the manager. However, this traditional paradigm cannot solve many of the problems that confront leaders and mangers today. Recent studies have shown that values traditionally associated with spirituality—such as integrity, honesty, trust, kindness, caring, fairness, and humility—have a demonstrable effect on managerial effectiveness and success. Although traditionally interpreted as a religious-spiritual text, the Bhagavad Gītā teaches these values which can be extrapolated and applied to practical management lessons in today’s corporate boardrooms. Applying the text of the Bhagavad Gītā to the context of management, this book views the manager as an “enlightened sage” who operates from higher stance, guided by self-knowledge and self-mastery. It demonstrates how character is the key ingredient for effective management and leadership. This book is therefore applicable to all managers, from first-line to CEOs, in their management and leadership roles in organizations.

Book excerpt: The Bhagavadgita is one phase of the Tripod of Indian philosophy and culture, the other two phases being the Upanishads and the Brahmasutras. While the Upanishads lay the foundation of the loftiest reach possible for humanity and the Brahmasutras logically elucidate the intricate issues involved in the Upanishads, the Bhagavadgita blends together the Transcendent and the Immanent features of the Ultimate Reality, bringing together into an integrated whole knowledge and action, the inner and the outer, the individual and the society, man and God, all which are portrayed as facets of a universal Operation, presenting entire life and all life as a perfectly complete organic wholeness, leaving nothing unsaid and attempting to solve every problem of life.

Download or read book Bhagavad G t written by Madhusūdana Sarasvatī and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 1054 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Madhusudana Sarasvati's most famous work, Advaitasiddhi, helped to establish monism on a logical basis by refuting all criticisms of it by other schools. In his commentary on the Bhagavad Gita, however, he set forth a philosophy of life which also recognised other ways of spiritual development -- such as Yoga, devotion to God, and the analytical penetration of Samkhya. Here, Madhusudana gave the highest place to the cultivation of devotion. The present work of Madhusudana, the Gudhartha Dipika (an Annotation Revealing the True Import of the Gita) is probably the greatest of his many literary works. Though there are many classical commentaries on the Gita, this work stands next only to Sri Shankaracharya's commentary as regards clarity, depth, and originality.
