The Bhagavad-Gita: The Song of God: Original Sanskrit text & Roman Transliteration, A lucid english rendition,
₹295.00
The Gita is a song-not just any song, but a very special song, the song of God-sung by the
Divine Being of infinite consciousness to His most beloved devotee, Arjuna. Arjuna in Sanskrit means clear white light, the brightness and clarity, the name of the man who manifested the clarity of pure devotion by which the Lord’s wisdom may be heard, and by which the universal form may be perceived. And what a song it is! A symphony of soul’s longing for divinity, of the search for clarity, the explanations of yoga-what constitutes divine union, and how one gets there. No
subject of spiritual evolution remains neglected by the Gita.
The Gita has been translated into more languages than any other literary work. In English
alone there are more renditions than can be counted. Each one has its own character, each one
a slightly different analysis. Some are poetic, some philosophical, some dogmatic, some universal.
This translation by Dr. Prasad is just beautiful-so simple and clear. He uses just enough sanskrit to convey the majesty and beauty of the language and the intensity of the dialogue, and yet does not leave the reader dumbfounded in an unintelligible maze of vocabulary. The universal principle of the philosophy he espouses are filled with poetic grace and style. He captures so much of the Grace of the Gita, even in the prose of English, that the orchestrations of wisdom cannot but help lull our hearts after every chapter.
From Confusion’s first desire to neglect one’s duty or responsibilities, to the infinite vision of
the Lord as a consequence of total surrender to the will of God, Prasad’s rendering takes the
reader from doubts and misgivings to perfect efficiency in all that one undertakes.

Review(s)
“The Gita is a doctrine of universal truth, the Sanatana dharma, commonly known as Hinduism. It has the capacity to come down to the level of the reader and raise him to peace of mind.” – The Adyar Library Bulletin-1996 – K.K. Raja
The originally of the author/compiler lies in providing a suitable glass on all the important stanzas. While doing this, he has drawn upon authentic sources of Indian philosophy and history, and has juxtaposed quotes from the teachings of other religions. – Prabuddha Bharata Vol.102, December 1997 – Dr. Narendranath B. Patil, Mumbai
