Narrative In Pursuance Of Books The Bhagavad Gita: A Walkthrough for Westerners

The Bhagavad Gita has been called India’s greatest contribution to the world. For more than five thousand years, this great scripture has shown millions in the East how to fill their lives with serenity and love. In these pages, Jack Hawley brings these ancient secrets to Western seekers in a beautiful prose version that makes the story of the Gita clear and exciting, and makes its truths understandable and easy to apply to our busy lives.

The Gita is a universal love song sung by God to His friend man. It can’t be confined by any creed. It is a statement of the truths at the core of what we all already believe, only it makes those truths clearer, so they become immediately useful in our daily lives. These truths are for our hearts, not just our heads.

The Gita is more than just a book, more than mere words or concepts. There is an accumulated potency in it. To read the Gita is to be inspired in the true sense of the term: to be “in-spirited,” to inhale the ancient and ever-new breath of spiritual energy.

Discuss Regarding Books The Bhagavad Gita: A Walkthrough for Westerners

OK, this isn't exactly a dumbed down Bhagavad Gita as many claim. We all have to realize that it's concepts are just a little foreign to the westerner and they may need a little nudge to understand what it is all about.I happened to find it fascinating and I highly recommend the book to all who can find it.

you just have to read it, absorb it

Enjoyed the book and will definitely read it again and again. Great for someone like me who couldn't even consider reading in the original context.

I really liked this translation

I've never read any version the Bhagavad Gita, so I cannot vouch for the authenticity of this translation/adaptation, but I found this to be an entree into an intriguing subject. I'm still skeptical of the doctrine (all doctrines), nevertheless, I enjoyed this.

This is a beautifully-written translation of the BG that is easy to read and so comforting.

An exceptional translation, offered in a way in which the story reads itself, while not lacking in the profound wisdom or poetic expression of the Gita.
