About the author

Bharat Ratna Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan was an Indian philosopher and statesman. He was the first Vice-President of India (1952–1962) and subsequently the second President of India (1962–1967).

One of India's most influential scholars of comparative religion and philosophy, Radhakrishnan is thought of as having built a bridge between the East and the West by showing that the philosophical systems of each tradition are comprehensible within the terms of the other. He wrote authoritative exegeses of India's religious and philosophical literature for the English speaking world. His academic appointments included the King George V Chair of Mental and Moral Science at the University of Calcutta (1921-?) and Spalding Professor of Eastern Religions and Ethics at Oxford University (1936–1952).

Among the many honours he received were a knighthood (1931), the Bharat Ratna (1954) and the Order of Merit in 1963. His birthday is celebrated in India as Teacher's Day.

[Ali Morakabi · Rating 5 out of 5]

كل جهان رزمگاه آدميان است . ميدان اصلي رزم دل انسانهاست . و هر روز و هر ساعت رزم در اين ميدان صورت مي گيرد . و صعود از زمين به آسمان و از رنج به سوي "جان" از راه "دارما" يا تشخيص درست از نادرست كه ويژگي انسان است انجام مي پذيرد . هدف "آواي آسماني" (كه بخش كوچكي از كتاب "بهاگاواد گيتا" است) بيش از آموزش نظريه به اجرا در آوردن "دارما" يا انجام وظايف فردي و اجتماعي است . "دارما" به معناي انجام اعمال و وظايفي است كه موجب توفيق دنيوي و رهايي مي گردد.
