The
Bhagawad Gita is the Song Of The Supreme, a
world scripture: It is a "Bible of
Humanity". |
|
|
In it are answers to
problems and perplexities of the modern world which
will not be solved without an appreciation of the
deeper values of life. The Gita stands for social
justice and brotherhood of man and shows the way to
a cultural and spiritual renaissance through
conquest of economic slavery and fellowship of
nations. |

The Bhagavad Gita is a
world-scripture with a world message, It is not
meant for India alone: it is a "Bible of Humanity". |
|
The Gita has an answer
to the problems and perplexities of the modern
world. The problems of social, national and
international reconstruction will not be solved
without an appreciation of those deeper values of
life which, the Gita shows, are the very structure
of Reality. A new Indian nation, a new social order,
a new civilization must be built on the essential
teachings of the Gita. The wisdom of the Gita is the
hope of a new humanity Sadhu Vaswani, who was
regarded by many as an "embodiment of the Gita", a
"living Gita", and who was equally at home in the
Eastern and Western traditions of thought, gives us
in this book the teaching of the Gita in simple
words. |
|
In the Bhagavad Gita,
simplicity is combined with wisdom. The essential
teaching of the Bhagavad Gita has been overlaid by
controversies which scholars and theologians may
understand but not lovers of the simple life. In the
present volume, the author has simplified the
message of the Bhagavad Gita and related it to the
experience and aspirations of the common man. "To
the vast majority of men", he says, "life seems to
be a meaningless muddle. Not many seem to realize
that life, at its noblest, is a yatra, a pilgrimage
to God: the Infinite is our true Home". |
|
A new renaissance of
culture and man's spiritual life is humanity's
urgent need. The Gita shows the way to a cultural
and spiritual renaissance. The Gita stands for
social justice for brotherhood of man, for
fellowship of nations, for conquest of economic
slavery, for creation of new life. The Gita is,
above all a dispensation of Love and Freedom. |
