The Holy Geeta

The Holy Geeta, or the Song Celestial, is a dialogue between the Lord and a man of action set amidst the din and roar of war. The good and evil forces within are represented in the battlefield of life. Man often finds himself in a crisis, wherein he is psychologically unable to cope with the situation at hand, or even decide the right course of action. In this inner turmoil, there is a great battle between the positive and negative inclinations. The Holy Geeta portrays this great spiritual struggle within man and guides him towards his inherent divinity and positivity. In doing so, this Celestial Song explains the nature of man, his purpose in the world and the means for him to attain his hoals. In short, it is a complete manual for achieving success in life. The Holy Geeta is the heart of the great Hindu epic, the Mahabharata. It is the quintessence of the philosophy of Vedanta. This commentary on the Holy Geeta by Swami Chinmayananda is one of the finest ever written. His extremely logical explanations in contemporary and powerful language have appealed to millions of people around the world.

Customers find this book to be a great philosophic work and the best commentary available on Bhagavad Geeta, with explanations in modern parlance. Moreover, the translation is written in lucid English, making it easy to understand. However, the readability receives mixed feedback, with some enjoying it while others find it difficult to read. Additionally, several customers note that the pages are very thin.
