Publisher's Summary

The ancient wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita for a modern audience.

The Bhagavad Gita contains timeless wisdom. Even today, thousands of years after it was first written, the key messages from the Bhagavad Gita are immensely powerful. It can help guide self-inquiry into what it means to live a purposeful and meaningful life. In this audiobook, Govind Chopra deconstructs key verses from the Indian holy book in the context of the challenges of 21st-century life.

Its key messages about self-control, self-knowledge, self-realization, and selfless action are more important than ever in today's click-bait culture.

In this audiobook, you will learn these 7 abiding lessons:

  • Lesson One: Work Hard, But Remain Unattached To The Outcome
  • Lesson Two: Your Mind Can Be Your Best Friend Or Your Worst Enemy
  • Lesson Three: The Present Moment Is All There Is, So Pay Attention To It
  • Lesson Four: Happiness Is A State Of Mind
  • Lesson Five: The True Nature Of Reality Is Unknowable
  • Lesson Six: Everybody Dies
  • Lesson Seven: Consider The Middle Way

Crisp & simple

I tried reading the Gita & got lost in the words. This book has given a great overview and in the end he also directs you to the English translation of GITA (The Song Celestial by Sir Edwin Arnold) that even Gandhi thought was the best translation he’d read ! It’ll be easier to now tread through the holy text with priming from this book. So a million thanks to the author and to the reader for their work 🙏🏼
