The Bhagwadgita as a scriptural text is generally available as a compendium of seven hundred verses delivered by Shri Krishna to Arjun at the great battlefield of Kurukshetra. This book is based on seventy core verses which is believed to be the original matter spoken by Krishna to Arjun, while the rest of the verses have been added at later stages. These verses, the author believes, capture the entire philosophy of the Bhagwadgita. The original scriptural text which was transported by Hindu immigrants to the islands of Java and Bali nearly two thousand years ago comprised only these seventy verses. The discovered historical transcripts indicate that this text was available in those islands in ad 535 and was retrieved by Hindu visitors later. Each chapter in this book is woven around one Sanskrit verse which is presented along with its meaning, followed by a lucid explanation of the inherent message it contains. Then the author goes on to provide a real-life situation in which the same can be applied, so that we can live a life of peace, harmony and contentment. This book doesn't confine itself to theory alone; it shows us how to apply the wisdom of the Bhagwadgita in our day-to-day life, teaching us ways to resolve problems and emphasizing what should be our correct attitude when faced with tough choices
