The Bhagavad Gita - The Divine Conversation
The Bhagavad Gita - The Divine Conversation
The Bhagavad Gita is one of the worlds greatest scriptures, the key sacred text of Hinduism. It means the "Song of God" and is often called the "Song Celestial".
Alan Jacobs has succeeded in revitalising the ancient text into a form which reveals the full majesty of this magnificent scripture as well as it's practical message for todays seekers.
The outdated English of Sir Edwin Arnold's fine poetic translation in 1855 has been transformed and given clear meaning. It has also been expanded to reinforce the poetic imagery using contemporary free verse based on innovative metaphors. It is mandala poetry - each verse is a mandala for meditation.
Alan Jacobs incisive philosophic commentary dusts off the archaism of 1500 years and restores the text as a transforming instrument pointing the way to Self-Realisation.
