Download or read book Demystifying the Bhagvad Gita written by Amit Kulshreshtha and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-11-04 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is it possible in the modern world to live a life of peace and joy, free from tension, anxiety, fear and frustration? We are worried for lack of peace and order in the world or for our relationships with others, but we fail to realize that this world is our relationship with others. If we use our relationships without understanding ourselves, we create further confusion and disorder. When one understands oneself, one understands the other, and out of that understanding comes love. Today, love is the missing factor. There is a lack of affection, of warmth in relationships. This lack of love, tenderness, generosity in relationships is the cause of lack of trust, peace and order. Understanding of the self, is therefore, of paramount importance. Without exploring the complete process of thought, feeling, and action in oneself, there cannot possibly be peace, order, and security. The study of oneself requires extraordinary awareness about what one does, without any judgement, condemnation, admiration, or blame. Right action comes through understanding the process of oneself. Self-knowledge is the beginning of wisdom, it is a field of affection, warmth, and love. This book is a step by step guide to understand oneself through modern knowledge and ancient wisdom. It is based on first six chapters of the Bhagavad-Gita. The Bhagavad-Gita is an extraordinary articulation of the fundamental truth of Vedanta in very structured manner. In the Bhagavad-Gita, it takes eighteen chapters to unfold the ultimate truth. First six chapters talk about the real nature of the self, attaining blissful state as a consequence of that understanding, and the ways to experience the real self. The next six chapters, from chapter seven to chapter twelve, talk about the infinite splendour of the divinity and creation in its fullness. The final six chapters, chapter thirteen to eighteen, talk about the relationship between oneself and the infinite divinity. The best way to use this book is to read a page a day, and then to read the corresponding verses, which have been included in Devanagari as well as transliteration using ITRANS scheme using roman script for the readers not familiar with Devanagari script, and being transliteration of Sanskrit verses may give false spellcheck error. Translation of verses in English along with word to word translation is also included. Deeply think about the real meaning of the verses, and try to interpret your own meaning. By the grace of God you will receive more light from within based on your current state of understanding of the truth, and greater, and ever greater, understanding of the truth will be revealed to your mind. This is the sole objective, with which this work is offered at the feet of the Lord present in you.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rarely in a lifetime does a new spiritual classic appear that has the power to change people's lives and transform future generations. This is such a book. The Essence of the Bhagavad Gita Explained by Paramhansa Yogananda shares the profound insights of Paramhansa Yogananda, author of Autobiography of a Yogi, as remembered by one of his few remaining direct disciples, Swami Kriyananda. This revelation of India's best-loved scripture approaches it from an entirely fresh perspective, showing its deep allegorical meaning and also its down-to-earth practicality. The themes presented are universal: how to achieve victory in life in union with the divine; how to prepare for life's "final exam," death, and what happens afterward; how to triumph over all pain and suffering. This book is itself a triumph. Swami Kriyananda worked with Paramhansa Yogananda in 1950 while the Master completed his commentary. At that time Yogananda commissioned him to disseminate his teachings world-wide. Kriyananda has in his lifetime lectured, taught, and written eighty-five books based on Yogananda's teachings. The Essence of the Bhagavad Gita, Kriyananda's eighty-sixth book, is the crowning achievement of his highly productive life. In this, his masterpiece, he declares, "Yogananda's insights into the Gita are the most amazing, thrilling, and helpful of any I have ever read."
Download or read book Bhagavad Gita written by Mahesh B. Sharma and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2005-02-15 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bhagavad Gita is a comprehensive spiritual guide of Hinduism, which includes the essence of the Vedas, the Upanishads, and all the other systems of Hindu philosophy. It therefore incorporates infinite wisdom in 700 verses. The Gita has noble philosophy, art and literature. The subject matter is in the form of a dialogue between Krishna and Arjuna. The thoughts expressed by Krishna are quite deep. Mahatma Gandhi said that when disappointment stares me in the face and all alone I see not one ray of light, I go to the Bhagavad Gita. I read a verse here and there, I immediately begin to smile in the midst of overwhelming tragedies - and my life has been full of tragedies - and if they have left no visible, no indelible scar on me, I owe it all to the teachings of the Bhagavad Gita.
Download or read book Essence of the Bhagavad Gita written by Eknath Easwaran and published by Nilgiri Press. This book was released on 2011-12-13 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this companion to his best-selling translation of the Bhagavad Gita, Easwaran explores the essential themes of this much-loved Indian scripture. Placing the Gita in a modern context, Easwaran shows how this classic text sheds light on the nature of reality, the illusion of separateness, the search for identity, and the meaning of yoga. The key message of the Gita is how to resolve our conflicts and live in harmony with the deep unity of life, through the principles of yoga and the practice of meditation. Easwaran grew up in the Hindu tradition and learned Sanskrit from an early age. A foremost translator and interpreter of the Gita, he taught classes on it for forty years, while living out the principles of the Gita in the midst of a busy family and community life. In the Gita, Sri Krishna, the Lord, doesn’t tell the warrior prince Arjuna what to do: he shows Arjuna his choices and then leaves it to Arjuna to decide. Easwaran, too, shows us clearly how these teachings still apply to us – and how, like Arjuna, we must take courage and act wisely if we want our world to thrive.
