You are the imperishable supreme, the ultimate object of knowledge; You are the supreme treasure-house of this universe; You are the indestructible guardian of eternal righteousness; I hold You to be the eternal Puruṣa.

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.

Same theme, different voices
God can be realized through truth alone.
We have been given this human life to understand the all-pervading, omnipresent God. This knowledge can only be given by someone who has themselves realized God. Life becomes truly happy only after meeting such a God-realized person.
Seek the Kingdom of God and His righteousness first, and all other things will be added to you.
God is the enduring one, and everything else is transient.
