Bhagavad Gita: Modern Reading and Scientific Study

This book contains in-depth study on ancient Indian philosophy and scientific analysis of Vedantic cosmology. In contrast to old and monopolized religious commentaries on the Gita, it brings out the essence of Vedanta in its clear and pristine form, devoid of all religious consideration or superstition. This is the first ever scientific reading of the Gita. It is the guide, friend and companion to a new age – an age of oneness devoid of sectarianism and divisive tendencies – the future of mankind.

The work contains the Sanskrit transliteration of the Gita into lossless roman script and simple English translation of every verse, plus detailed commentary and discussion. Sanskrit terms used in the Gita are retained at all levels in the commentary. All concepts however deep are presented lucidly making it very easy for objective interpretation even for the beginner.

This mega work establishes how the wisdom provided in the Gita can help anyone lead a successful and happy life irrespective of religion, gender, nationality, caste or creed, successfully integrating the Vedantic path with modern life in unbiased, simple and practical manner. (No self-help books required anymore!).

Originally written in Malayalam (one of the Classical Languages of India), the work was serialized in Mathrubhumi daily – the leading newspaper of Kerala – over a period of two years. Published as book titled ‘Gitadarsanam’ in Malayalam language, the work is a best seller in that language.
