The Bhagavad Gita is perhaps the most famous, and definitely the most widely read, ethical text of ancient India. As an episode in Indias great epic, the Mahabharata, The Bhagavad Gita now ranks as one of the three principal texts that define and capture the essence of Hinduism, the other two being the Upanishads and the Brahma Sutras. The teaching of The Bhagavad Gita is summed up in the maxim "your business is with the deed and not with the result."
The message of Gita came to humanity because of Arjunas unwillingness to do his duty as a warrior, because fighting involved destruction and killing. ... In Gita Lord Krishna advises Arjuna to get up and fight. ...
The main objective of the Gita is to help people struggling in the darkness of ignorance, cross the ocean of transmigration and reach the spiritual shore of liberation while living and working in the society. The central teaching of the Gita is the attainment of freedom or happiness from the bondage of life by doing one’s duty. ...
The Gita is pane theistic rather than pantheistic. ... Nevertheless, the Gita contains probably the most powerful and thoroughgoing expression of pantheism in world scripture. ...
Bhagavata Gita is a practical guide for all.
