The Bhagavad Gītā is considered to be the Hindu Bible and is well-known for its very beautiful and spiritual message which also underlies many of the world religions. This version is the most accurate translation to have been published – and it also reflects the beauty of the original Sanskrit poetry. The commentary and translation also provide information that can be used to understand the structure of Vedic poetry itself – and as such, is the first textbook published on the subject. This version also unearths an ancient Hindu prophecy that should be familiar to many given the famous quote from the father of the atomic bomb. The foreword to the book also ties together many trends in both modern and ancient culture and exposes the harm that has been inflicted on the Hindu faith in recent centuries by those publishing who did not have the proper traditional education in the faith or adequate understanding of the Sanskrit language.
