"When doubt haunts me, when disappointments stare
me in the face, and I see not one ray of hope on the horizon, I turn to
the Bhagavad-Gita and find a verse to comfort me, and I immediately
begin to smile in the midst of overwhelming sorrow. Those who meditate
on the Gita will derive fresh joy and new meanings from it every day.”
—Mahatma Gandhi

Astonishing ancient wisdom with powerful
modern-day implications (and the pathway that will connect you to it)
Though the exact age and origin of the Bhagavad-Gita is unknown,
scholars of the ancient text agree that it was first written down around
500 b.c. — about 2,500 years ago.
But for many thousands of years before that, the Bhagavad-Gita was
passed from person to person and generation to generation in a
painstakingly preserved oral tradition. This tradition was carried on by
the Brahmans, a caste of mystical scholars whose lives were dedicated
entirely to memorizing the Bhagavad-Gita word for word and passing it
down in its purest, most accurate form.
The remarkable result of this meticulous scholarship is that the
Bhagavad-Gita we study today is virtually the same sacred text that
brought enlightenment and understanding to people thousands of years
ago. Through the long march of time, not a single line has been lost,
not a single brilliant truth forgotten. When we hear these words of the
Bhagavad-Gita, we are touching some of the oldest, most ancient, most
beautiful, wisest texts on the planet today.
But the scrupulous preservation of this ancient text can also present a
challenge to modern spiritual seekers. The language of the Bhagavad-Gita
can be dauntingly complex. Its powerful messages and secrets are very
often contained in sentences so cryptic, even advanced students struggle
to decipher them.
For many years, we’ve searched for the perfect way to bring the
incredible spiritual wisdom of the Bhagavad-Gita to our customers,
without bringing them all of the unnecessary confusion and complexity
that comes with it.
At last, this long-time goal has been realized in a remarkable new
program,
The Essence of the Bhagavad-Gita: Every Person’s Guide to the
All-Time Spiritual Classic.
This powerful and easily accessible audio program distills the major
lessons and principles of the Bhagavad-Gita, leaving the complex
language behind.
The wonderful result is a program which reveals the most profound and
essential teachings of the Bhagavad-Gita in a beautifully
clear and
straightforward way so you can easily understand them and apply them to
your life today! |
