FOREWORD
It is gratifying to see the English version
'Message of Gita' of the original Hindi `Sara)
Gita Gyan' having been brought out for the
benefit of predominantly English-using Indian
readers at home as also abroad. The Gita is
a profound and comprehensive text, not easily
intelligible even to the fairly well-educated
readership. It is in this book that the topics of
life and death, happiness and grief, knowledge
and action etc., as enunciated in the Gita,
have been dealt with in communicative style,
without compromising the authenticity of the
content. The truth is that the Gita, having
transcended the national boundaries, is now
a part of the world heritage ever since it
became accessible to the western scholars.
The Gita has rightly been acknowledged as an
invaluable gift to the entire humanity from Lord
Shri Krishna, which has done India proud.
