And no one among human beings does more pleasing service to me than he; nor shall there be another on earth dearer to me than he.
न च तस्मान्मनुष्येषु कश्चिन्मे प्रियकृत्तमः | भविता न च मे तस्मादन्यः प्रियतरो भुवि ||१८-६९||

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
A true devotee says, 'O God, you alone are the doer; you alone do everything.
Whoever performs their duty honestly and sincerely is a 'Karam Yogi', a true devotee.
He should be wise yet innocent; strong yet kind-hearted; one who shares what little he has: only such a person can be a true devotee.
