Description: Part of the ancient Hindu epic The Mahabharata The Bhagavad Gita is one of the enduring religious texts of the world The Bhagavad Gita is an early poem that recounts the conversation between Arjuna the warrior and his charioteer Krishna a manifestation of God. In the moments before a great battle Krishna sets out the important lessons Arjuna must learn to understand his own role in the war he is about to fight. Krishna reveals to Arjuna his true cosmic form and counsels the warrior to act according to his sacred obligations. Ranging from instructions on yoga to moral discussion the Gita has served for centuries as an everyday practical guide to living well. Translated with an introduction by Laurie L. Patton
