If there is one book that can claim to provide the solution to all problems of humanity, it is the holy Bhagavad Gita. Simply reading this book and comprehending the life-changing, ageless, and profound wisdom contained in its 701 magnificent verses is enough to change the path of one’s life and bring it to the peak of perfection. That is why, after hearing this transcendental discourse of Lord Krishna, Arjuna exclaims to Him, “O Achyuta (The Changeless One), my delusion is destroyed, and my memory (about one’s true identity) has been regained by me through Your grace. I am firmly situated; my doubts are gone. I will now act according to Your word.” [Bhagavad Gita 18.73] The Bhagavad Gita is not a religious book and is not intended to be read and acted upon by the adherents of a particular religion. It’s a guidebook for life; a how-to manual. It is a medicine for the infected souls of the Kali-Yuga, the dark age. And there is no religion in medicine. The Bhagavad Gita is the most sacred conversation ever between Lord Krishna and his friend Prince Arjuna just before the beginning of the great war of Mahabharata, on the holy battlefield of Kurukshetra, where the Lord enlightens a bewildered Arjuna about the biggest truths of the universe . This dialogue is considered to contain the nectar of all Vedic scriptures, the most ancient scriptures of the world. By reading the Bhagavad Gita, you will discover answers to the most important questions in life , such as: Who are you? What is your purpose in life and how to fulfill that purpose? Is there a God? If yes, who is God, and how to know and reach Him? Is God one or many? What is your relationship with God? What is death and why you do not need to fear death? What happens after death? Do heaven and hell exist? Is reincarnation real? What is Yoga? What are the different types of Yoga? How to be a Yogi? How does the Law of Karma work? Why are we all living life the wrong way? And how you can live your life the right way? How to see yourself and your life from the right perspective? How to master your mind and get rid of negative emotions like worry, fear, anger, jealousy, and sadness for good? How to be always happy? What is the most perfect method of meditation? Hari Chetan’s translation of the Bhagavad Gita is the outcome of his two decades of experience in the field of Vedic philosophy. The following are some of the distinguishing aspects of this English translation: All the verses of the Bhagavad Gita are accurately translated from the original Sanskrit texts. The translations are presented in their authentic form, free from any sectarian bias . The translations are kept simple without sacrificing accuracy, essence, and spirit. The gaps arising while translating verses from Sanskrit to English have been taken care of to preserve the intended meaning of each verse.

Powerful teachings explained
As a newcomer to the Bhagavad Gita, Mr Chetan’s version in English was easy to understand. The explanatory comments and additions in brackets really helped me to grasp the meaning in more depth. I really enjoyed it. Thank you.

A worthy read
Informative, revealing and to be read and referred to often to fully understand. Sometimes difficult to follow with all the 'explainer' text in parentheses

Excellent
I bought the book a couple of years ago which I use at home. I recently bought the Kindle edition to read on my phone when away from home. Both are excellent and very satisfying.

It pays to learn that other cultures believe
It helps put the Judeao-Christian mythology in context when it is compared to the other unlikely tales other religions have.

powerful and clear translation
This translation of the Bhagavad Gita is truly a gem. It strikes the perfect balance between clarity and depth, making it accessible for readers new to the text while still honoring the spiritual and philosophical richness of the original. What I appreciate most is the unbiased approach – it doesn’t push any particular interpretation or agenda. Instead, it presents the teachings with respect and accuracy, allowing the reader to draw their own insights. The language is elegant yet simple, which helps keep the flow natural without losing the sacred tone. Whether you're reading the Gita for personal growth, academic study, or spiritual guidance, this edition is a trustworthy and enriching companion. Highly recommended for anyone looking to understand the Gita in a clear and authentic way.

Best Book
This is not a book, but it's truth and lessons of my mine. I love this book. The literature is really good. most of book like this are written pretty well but it's hard to understand the actual meaning behind the words, but this helps me a lot. It's not too hard to understand. It even explains the each lines of conversation between Arjuna and Krishna. It's great book.
