130 Gitas: A Brief Introduction (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798271627880)

130 Gitas
A Brief Introduction

India's spiritual tradition is uniquely rich in dialogues that reveal timeless wisdom through the interaction of teacher and seeker. Among these, the word Gita - meaning "divine song" - signifies not only the Bhagavad Gita but also many other sacred discourses that express profound truths in poetic and philosophical form. Over centuries, sages, kings, and deities have shared these Gitas to illuminate the nature of life, duty, devotion, and liberation.

This collection brings together concise summaries of 130 such Gitas drawn from the Mahabharata, Puranas, Upanishads, and other classical sources. Each Gita reflects a distinct spiritual perspective - some emphasize devotion (Bhakti), others knowledge (Jnana), meditation (Dhyana), or righteous action (Karma). Yet all share a single goal: to guide the human mind from ignorance to realization of the Self.

The variety of these teachings demonstrates the inclusiveness of Indian philosophy - that many paths lead toward the same eternal truth. Whether spoken by God, sage, or devotee, each Gita carries the same divine intention: to awaken wisdom, compassion, and peace within the seeker.

This collection is not a scholarly translation but a concise presentation of each Gita's spirit - its speaker, context, and wisdom. It is intended for readers seeking an accessible overview of India's dialogical scriptures that illuminate the paths of knowledge, devotion, meditation, and selfless action.

This book is part of the "Timeless Wisdom Series", offering insights into spirituality, philosophy, psychology, and self-growth for readers of all ages.
