Eknath Easwaran points out, the Gita is not what it seems – it`s not a dialogue between two mythical figures at the dawn of Indian history.The Bhagavad Gita, ‘The Song of the Lord,` is the best known of all the Indian scriptures, and Eknath Easwaran`s reliable, readable version has consistently been the bestselling translation.The Bhagavad Gita opens, dramatically, on a battlefield, as the warrior Arjuna turns in anguish to his spiritual guide, Sri Krishna, for answers to the fundamental questions of life.Easwaran`s introduction places the Gita in its historical setting and brings out the universality and timelessness of its teachings. Chapter introductions give clear explanations of key concepts, and notes and a glossary explain Sanskrit terms.
