Excerpt from The Bhagavad-Gita, or the Lord''s Song: With the Text in Devanagari and an English Translation
It is a scripture of Yoga: now Yoga is literally union, and it means harmony with the divine Law, the becoming one with the divine Life, by the subdual of all outward-going energies. To reach this, balance must be gained, equilibrium, so that the self, joined to the Self, shall not be affected by pleasure or pain, desire or aversion, or any of the pairs of opposites between which untrained selves swing.

This book delves into the profound teachings of the Bhagavad-Gita, a revered Hindu scripture, exploring its timeless wisdom on yoga, duty, and the pursuit of liberation. Set against the backdrop of an epic battlefield, the author unveils the Gita's central message that spiritual enlightenment can be achieved amidst life's challenges, not through seclusion but through action and inner transformation. The author skillfully guides readers through the Gita's teachings on harmonizing the various aspects of human existence ââ â body, mind, and spirit ââ â to attain union with the divine.
