Finding Meaning in Life with the Bhagavad Gita (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9791091916134)

Bhagavad Gita is one of the world oldest and most influential spiritual text. It is in the form of a dialogue between prince Arjuna and Krishna, on the great battlefield of Kurukshetra. Arjuna is filled with despair about the violence and death the imminent war will cause and is also grappling with other moral dilemnas.

The Krishna-Arjuna dialogues cover a broad range of topics, touching upon ethical concerns and philosophical issues that go far beyond the war that is about to take place. In this beautifully illustrated book, Neema Majmudar, Nandini Mirani and Saloni Jhaveri give us profound insights into the teachings of Lord Krishna by translating, analysing and explaining forty five key verses of the Gita especially chosen for their logic, wisdom and practicality.

'Finding Meaning in Life with the Bhagavad Gita' will enable us to address the larger challenges in life that we have little control over, such as pandemics, wars, and economic crisis, as well as concerns which are unique to each one of us-- the search for meaning in our daily existence, success in our careers, happiness in our personal lives, and also our longing for personal fulfillment.

Neema Majmudar has a Master's degree in International Affairs from the School of International and Public Affairs (SIPA), Columbia University, New York. She has studied the Upanishads, Bhagavad Gita and Sanskrit with Swami Dayananda Saraswati, a great Vedanta scholar and visionary. She worked for almost twenty years at the United Nations before becoming a full time teacher of Vedanta and the Gita. Neema and her husband, Surya Tahora, conduct regular workshops and retreats on Vedanta.
