The Bhagavad Gita

El Bhagavad Gita es el Evangelio del hinduismo

The Bhagavad Gita is the Gospel of Hinduism, and one of the great religious classics of the world.

Its simple, vivid message is a daily inspiration in the lives of millions throughout the world and has been so for countless generations.

The Bhagavad Gita tells the story of this venerable and enduring book, from its origins in ancient India to its reception today as a spiritual classic that has been translated into more than seventy-five languages.

The Gita opens on the eve of a mighty battle, when the warrior Arjuna is overwhelmed by despair and refuses to fight.

He turns to his charioteer, Krishna, who counsels him on why he must.

In the dialogue that follows, Arjuna comes to realize that the true battle is for his own soul.

Here is a distinguished translation that can be read by every person, not as an archaic monument to an ancient culture, but as a living contemporary message that touches the most urgent personal and social problems.
