The Bhagavad Gita is a sacred text of Hinduism that has been translated and interpreted by many scholars over the years. This particular translation by Sir Edwin Arnold is considered to be one of the most popular and influential versions of the text. The book is a poetic and philosophical dialogue between the warrior Arjuna and his charioteer Krishna, who is believed to be an incarnation of the god Vishnu. The dialogue takes place on the battlefield of Kurukshetra, where Arjuna is about to engage in a battle against his own family members. Krishna uses this opportunity to teach Arjuna about the nature of existence, the purpose of life, and the path to spiritual liberation. The text covers a wide range of topics, including karma, dharma, yoga, and the nature of God. Arnold's translation is known for its lyrical and accessible prose, which has helped to popularize the Bhagavad Gita outside of India. The book has been praised for its insights into the human condition and its ability to inspire readers to live a more meaningful and fulfilling life.Free of commentary.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
