Bhagavad Gita Volume I: English Translation

By Bhagavan Sri Krishna

The Bhagavad Gita is a seminal text of Hindu spirituality. The wisdom imparted by the discourse between Sri Krishna and his disciple Arjuna has resonated with readers throughout the centuries.

Mahatma Gandhi spoke of the Gita as an "infallible guide," and so it is. American Transcendentalists Henry David Thoreau and Ralph Waldo Emerson were also deeply influenced by its teachings, as was Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung.

These verses on duty, right action, devotion, and knowledge remain as relevant today as they were on the battlefield of Kurukshetra thousands of years ago.

Sri Lalitambika Devi's translation is bold, direct, and clear. This new edition is as resonant to the original Sanskrit as it is vibrant and modern.

Volume I contains a contemporary English translation. A comprehensive introduction explores the scripture's cultural, historical, and psychological context.
