THE HOLY GEETA (HARD BOUND COVER) – Commentary by Swami Chinmayananda

The Song of Eternity — A dialogue between Lord Krishna, the divine in us, and Arjuna, the symbol of our deluded ego (Jeevabhava) — How our mental confusion, delusion, desires, passions, etc. destroy our inner peace and how to overcome them is indicated — Geeta is a consolation to the bereaved, disillusioned, disappointed, morally slipped and spiritually fallen — It is a guidance to a politician, businessman and teenagers. The grand vision of the universe and all pervasiveness of God indicated — The secret of action pointed out — How one can step up efficiency, inner peace, concentration, usefulness to others and joy to himself is indicated — Tips for effective meditation given — Nature of the perfect man pointed out — Science of spiritual growth, spiritual fall and impotent stagnation is indicated — The beauty of the spirit and the ways of reaching the divine goal are indicated and that is the glory of Geeta.

Swami Chinmayananda, pioneered the art of conveying sublime knowledge intricately wrapped in Sanskrit scripture through the medium of English discourse and commentary. On realising the true purpose of life, he worked tirelessly and with tremendous energy for more than four decades to spread the message of Vedanta. A great writer, leader, patriot and spiritual giant – He brought about a spiritual renaissance of the Vedantic heritage to the world. A powerful orator with his own brand of wit and humour; he paints vividly the wisdom of the ages in front of us. His commentary on the Bhagavad Geeta and Upanishads are considered one of the best ever for their clarity and crisp logic.

Although there are many commentaries on the Geeta, it is the careful analysis and brilliant reasoning of Swami Chinmayananda’s version that makes it so exceptional. There is a constant attempt to bring forth from each verse not only its literal meanings but also its hidden import that reveals a wealth of knowledge.

A rare Masterpiece.
