| | EAWC Essay: The Historical Context of the "Bhagavad Gita" |
| | Even though The Bhagavad Gita (hereafter referred to as the Gita) is one of the three principal texts that define the essence of Hinduism, and since all over the world Hindus chant from the Gita during most of their religious ceremonies, strictly speaking the Gita is not one of the Hindu scriptures. | | | The Gita is not the Hindu scripture even though the literal translation of "Bhagavad Gita" is "The Song of God". | | | From the contents of the Gita, it is abundantly clear that both the principal teachings of the Upanishads and of early Buddhism were familiar to the writers of the Gita. |

| | That is the rough estimate of the history of the Gita, according to the Gita itself and according to the version of the speaker, Lord Sri Krishna. | | | Although Arjuna is a devotee of the Lord, he sometimes forgets the nature of the Lord, but by the divine grace a devotee can at once understand the infallible condition of the Lord, whereas a nondevotee or a demon cannot understand this transcendental nature. | | | The purpose of the Vedas is to establish such principles under the order of the Supreme Lord, and the Lord directly orders, at the end of the Gita, that the highest principle of religion is to surrender unto Him only, and nothing more. |

| | Those prejudiced against religious works as 'mystical rubbish' may be suprised to discover that the Bhagavad Gita is one of the great monuments to the sovereignty of the human mind. | | | Translating from the Sanskrit as 'Lord's Song', the Gita is a revolutionary work in Hinduism because it states the 'secret' of personal devotion (bahkti) to one God (Krishna). | | | Not scholarly or complicated, it offers a path to steadiness of mind and joy in one’s work that could not be more relevant amidst the speed and pressure of life in the 21st century. |
