The Bhagavad Gita, translated and commentated by S. Radhakrishnan, is one of the most scholarly and accessible English renderings of Hinduism's most beloved scripture — the dialogue between Arjuna and Lord Krishna on the battlefield of Kurukshetra. Radhakrishnan, philosopher and statesman, brings both rigorous intellectual insight and genuine spiritual depth to his translation and notes. This edition is treasured for its ability to illuminate the Gita's universal spiritual teaching across cultural and philosophical boundaries.

Whatever is thought by the brain suffers from artificiality. In fact, devotion is not the subject of brain, it is the subject of heart.
The human soul is often a battleground where reason and passion are in conflict.
May God and the Eternal Wisdom grant us to remain equally immovable and unalterable with Himself. Amen.
