Abstract:
The Bhagavadgita is one of the scriptural pillars of Hinduism. Mahatma Gandhi spoke of it as his mother and, since ancient times, it has enjoyed a unique significance and popularity. Seekers from many religions continue to be attracted to the beauty and profundity of its wisdom. In this book, Dr. Rambachan unfolds the universality of the Bhagavadgita, showing how the teachings of the text enable us to cultivate continuous awareness of God and compassion for all beings. The Bhagavadgita invites us to extend the circle of our identity and to embrace and respond to the sorrows and joys of all beings as our own.
