Project Description
Journey of self-discovery (English)
This course contains the essence of a study of the text and the principal ideas within the Bhagavad-gita. Bhagavad-gita is the most famous spiritual book in India, spoken by Lord Krishna on the Battlefield of Kurukshetra 5000 years ago. In this course, we have considered the Bhagavad-gita and tried to establish the main themes it pursues in its teachings, thereby seeking to identify the full significance of this famous scripture.
The Bhagavad Gita appears as a section of the Bhishma Parva, the sixth section of the Mahabharata, at the point just prior to the eighteen-day battle at Kurukshetra. The hopes of the Pandava faction rest largely on the martial prowess of Arjuna, the third of the five brothers, but at the start of the Bhagavad-gita we find the hero disconsolate and unwilling to wage war against his own family members, the Kauravas. At this point Lord Krishna begins to offer instruction to Arjuna. The initial intention of the discourse is to persuade Arjuna that waging war is not necessarily an act of wickedness, but the full treatise goes far beyond this initial thesis, developing into a full exposition of eternal truth.
This course has been designed for the students of Vedanta, spiritual seekers, and all who wish to live a life of quality and perfection.
