The Bhagavad Gita: The Message of the Master compiled and adapted from numerous old and new translations of the Original Sanscrit Text (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9782357288553)

Bhagavad Gita, sometimes called "The Lord's Lay," or the "Message of the Master,", is one of the most sacred Scriptures in the world. It is constantly quoted there as a great authority regarding doctrine. This philosophical poem focuses on a conversation between the Pandava prince Arjuna and the Beloved Lord Krishna, an Avatar of the god Vishnu. They converse about a variety of theological and philosophical issues (wisdom, devotion, spiritual knowledge, ego, inner power, karma and dharma...). This particular edition is not a new translation, but rather a compilation from the best of the various good translations of Hindu and English translators. It contains an introduction and a little notice. The reader will become acquainted with certain circumstances concerning the characters, scene, and theme of the story, which will make the reading of the text far more pleasing. This book is a synthesis of many of the most important Indian spiritual philosophies, and is by far the most relevant to modern humanity and the most inspiring to westerners.
