This book was released on 2024-04-09 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ""This is the deepest and most intimate truth of your real, spiritual existence."" Bhagavad Gita, also simply known as The Gita, is one of the most sacred Scriptures in the world. 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, self-knowledge, self-realization, ego, inner power, karma and dharma...). In this masterful study of the Bhagavad Gita, Sri Aurobindo explained the spiritual realization that not only liberated but transformed human nature, enabling a divine life on earth. The main objective of his teachings was to increase the level of consciousness of people and to aware people of their true selves. 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.

Book excerpt: The Bhagavad Gita is one of the leading texts on the practice of spirituality without abandoning life in the world. It forms 18 chapters within the epic Mahabharata and provides in its brief scope an extraordinarily concise review of the Yoga of Knowledge, Yoga of Devotion and Yoga of Works. At the same time, it represents a synthesis of Vedanta and Sankhya. Sri Aurobindo wrote his famous Essays on the Gita as a systematic review of the Bhagavad Gita. M.P. Pandit, the author of the current volume, has systematically presented Sri Aurobindo’s view of the Bhagavad Gita and its teachings. Major questions and issues are addressed. At the end there are a series of “gems” from Essays on the Gita to encapsulate Sri Aurobindo’s views on major concerns. M.P. Pandit was a prolific writer and lecturer, and a noted exponent of Sri Aurobindo’s Integral Yoga, while at the same time having a deep grounding in the Gita, the Upanishads, the Veda and the Tantras.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Nobel Laureate offers a dazzling new book about his native country India is a country with many distinct traditions, widely divergent customs, vastly different convictions, and a veritable feast of viewpoints. In The Argumentative Indian, Amartya Sen draws on a lifetime study of his country's history and culture to suggest the ways we must understand India today in the light of its rich, long argumentative tradition. The millenia-old texts and interpretations of Hindu, Buddhist, Jain, Muslim, agnostic, and atheistic Indian thought demonstrate, Sen reminds us, ancient and well-respected rules for conducting debates and disputations, and for appreciating not only the richness of India's diversity but its need for toleration. Though Westerners have often perceived India as a place of endless spirituality and unreasoning mysticism, he underlines its long tradition of skepticism and reasoning, not to mention its secular contributions to mathematics, astronomy, linguistics, medicine, and political economy. Sen discusses many aspects of India's rich intellectual and political heritage, including philosophies of governance from Kautilya's and Ashoka's in the fourth and third centuries BCE to Akbar's in the 1590s; the history and continuing relevance of India's relations with China more than a millennium ago; its old and well-organized calendars; the films of Satyajit Ray and the debates between Gandhi and the visionary poet Tagore about India's past, present, and future. The success of India's democracy and defense of its secular politics depend, Sen argues, on understanding and using this rich argumentative tradition. It is also essential to removing the inequalities (whether of caste, gender, class, or community) that mar Indian life, to stabilizing the now precarious conditions of a nuclear-armed subcontinent, and to correcting what Sen calls the politics of deprivation. His invaluable book concludes with his meditations on pluralism, on dialogue and dialectics in the pursuit of social justice, and on the nature of the Indian identity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rosen offers Westerners an easy-to-read introduction to a sacred text, demystifying its considerable philosophy in a user-friendly way. This is not yet another translation, merely reiterating what the Gita itself has to say. It is rather an attempt to culturally translate the text, making use of concepts and categories to which Western readers are accustomed. By engaging familiar motifs—such as issues of modernity, pop-culture icons, and well-known philosophers in the West—the author brings the Gita into focus for non-specialists and scholars alike. Through a series of contemporary news references and insightful summaries, readers will finally understand the facts and personalities that make up the Bhagavad Gita. Using his many years of Gita-centered research, Rosen unlocks the mysteries of the text's spiritual underpinnings. He provides an overview of the Gita's narrative and teachings alongside documentation of its traditional application and more modern ways in which the text can be understood. Students and scholars alike will rejoice in how well this book lays bare the culture and the context of the Gita, resulting in a reader's deep familiarity with this most sacred of all the world's wisdom texts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bhagavad Gita, often referred to as the "Gita," is a sacred text that has captivated hearts and minds for centuries. It is a profound dialogue between Lord Krishna, the divine guide, and Arjuna, a warrior prince facing a moral dilemma on the battlefield of Kurukshetra. Within the verses of the Gita lie timeless wisdom, spiritual insights, and practical guidance that have inspired and guided millions of individuals on their paths of self-realization and enlightenment. In this collection of essays, titled "Essays on Bhagavad Gita," we delve into the profound teachings encapsulated within the Gita, exploring various themes and chapters that offer invaluable lessons for our contemporary lives. Each essay aims to unravel the depth and significance of Gita's teachings, offering reflections and interpretations that shed light on its profound truths. The essays in this book are arranged sequentially, reflecting the flow of the chapters in the Bhagavad Gita. We commence with "Vishad Yoga," delving into Arjuna's despondency and Krishna's compassionate guidance, setting the stage for the transformative journey that lies ahead. From there, we embark on a voyage through the intricacies of Sankhya Yoga, Sthitprajyn (equanimity), Karma Yoga, and the exploration of natural actions and the sacred ritual of Yajyn. Throughout this collection, we encounter thought-provoking discussions on the concepts of action and inaction, the significance of austerity, and the nature of Brahman, the supreme reality. We delve into the quest for enlightenment, the eradication of ignorance, and the role of conscious awareness in uncovering our true selves. The essays also explore the interplay between desire, anger, and the pursuit of spiritual growth. We journey through the various paths of yoga, exploring Jnana Yoga and Karma Yoga, and delve into the intricacies of mind control, the transcendental nature of existence, and the awe-inspiring manifestation of the divine in the form of Viswaroop. The path of devotion, Bhakti Yoga, is explored with reverence and deep contemplation. As we progress further, we encounter profound discussions on the science of the soul, the mysteries surrounding life after death, and the cosmic interplay between Brahman and Mother Nature. The symbolism of the cosmic tree and the exploration of the dual nature of humanity offers profound insights into our existence. The essays culminate in a profound exploration of liberation, the ultimate achievement, and the quest for self-realization. We reflect on the nature of freedom, the purpose of life, and the eternal journey that lies beyond the confines of this mortal realm. "Essays on Bhagavad Gita" serves as a guide, inviting readers to immerse themselves in the timeless wisdom of the Gita and encouraging deep contemplation on the profound truths it holds. The essays aim to provide clarity, inspiration, and guidance to individuals seeking spiritual growth, inner peace, and a deeper understanding of their true nature. May this collection of essays on the Bhagavad Gita serve as a beacon of light, illuminating the path towards self-realization and the attainment of divine wisdom. May it inspire readers to embark on a transformative journey, unlocking the boundless potential in their hearts and souls.

Book excerpt: This is a collection of careful, objective, historically sensitive studies of modern commentators on the Bhagavadgita, one of the basic scriptures of Hinduism, and one which has been widely read in the modern West. Experts on modern Indian religious thought show how Ghandi, Vivekananda, Radhakrishnan, Bhaktivedanta, Aurobindo, Tilak, Bhave, Sivananda, the Theosophists, and Bhankim read, used and interpreted the Gita.

An Introduction and a Conclusion provide a perspective on the thinkers and identify common themes which are part of modern emphases.

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.
