The Song Celestial, also known as the Bhagavad-Gita, is a spiritual text that has been revered by Hindus for centuries. This particular version has been translated and interpreted by Edwin Arnold, a British poet and scholar of Sanskrit. The book is a dialogue between the warrior Arjuna and his charioteer Krishna, who is actually an incarnation of the god Vishnu. Krishna teaches Arjuna about the nature of reality, the purpose of life, and the path to enlightenment. The teachings of the Bhagavad-Gita are considered to be some of the most profound and influential in Hindu philosophy and have also had a significant impact on Western thought. Arnold's translation is highly regarded for its poetic language and accessibility to a Western audience. This edition includes an introduction by the author and a glossary of Sanskrit terms.1885.
