The Gita is considered the essence of the Upanishads. Due to complexity and vastness of the Upanishads, It is very difficult for a common person to understand it. This book presents a simple explanation of the Gita in the context of the Upanishads.
Is the world real? Are we in dream? Are We Brahm or just a body? Does God exist? How can one be free from sufferings? What is true happiness? How can life be lived in the best possible way? Answers to all these significant questions are available in this book.
The Gita, while summarizing the Upanishads and the three major philosophies of India—Yoga Darshan, Vedanta Darshan, and Samkhya Darshan—succeeds in explaining spirituality in the best and simplest way. The Gita is a part of the Bhishma Parva of the Mahabharata, in which Lord Krishna imparts knowledge, duty, and devotion in 700 verses to Arjuna, who is confused and distressed on the battlefield against the Kauravas.
The Gita is useful for anyone whose mind is troubled, fearful, and confused. For those thirsting for peace and knowledge, the Gita is for them. For those who are confused about duty and non-duty in their lives, the Gita is for them. For those curious about knowing the ultimate truth, the Gita is for them. For those who wish to know their true Self, the Gita is for them. For those seeking liberation from suffering, the Gita is for them. For those wanting to understand their mind, the Gita is for them. For those who wish to understand the reality of the world, the Gita is for them.
The result of the Gita is eternal peace. The result of the Gita is liberation from delusions and suffering. The result of the Gita is the removal of layers of falsehood. The Gita is the art of living life. This book attempts to explain the Shrimad Bhagavad Gita with simplicity and clarity in the context of the Upanishads. It is hoped that you, the discerning readers, will understand and benefit from this book.
