 Bhagavad Gita - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A core sacred text of Hindu ( Vedic) religion and philosophy, the Bhagavad Gita, often referred to as the Gita, is a summation of the Vedic, Yogic, Vedantic and Tantric philosophies.
According to the Bhagavad Gita, the goal of life is to free the mind and intellect from their complexities and to focus them on the glory of the Self by dedicating one's actions to the divine.
A memorable passage of the Gita is in the Eleventh Chapter in which Krishna reveals himself to Arjuna in all his splendid forms, all the plenary permutations of beings, the many gods and planes of existences all subsumed into the one essential Super-consciousness.

 BHAGWAD GITA
According to the Hindu traditions and beliefs, the gita is an eternal scripture.
The term yoga (means to unite, to yoke), is used in Gita, in the sense of union of the self with the supreme being it is not used in the sense as given in the yoga-sutra of Pantanjali.
The Gita can be verily said to be the foundation of not only of the Hindusim, but of the root of the religion itself.

 Bhagavad Gita
The Gita is variously dated between the third century BC and the fourth century AD.
Nevertheless, the Gita contains probably the most powerful and thoroughgoing expression of pantheism in world scripture.
One strand was probably written by a follower of the philosophy expressed in the Upanishads, in which Brahman is the highest unity underlying reality.

 Books By Rajaji - Bhagavad Gita - Index
The Gita is one of the most authoritative sources of Hindu doctrine and ethics, and is accepted as such by Hindus of all denominations.
The first step in religion is the realization of the existence of an entity of behind the apparent body, i.e., the Soul.
A Question may be raised at this stage by those who have only heard of or have a superficial acquaintance with the doctrine of Advaita.

 NBG-hp
The Bhagavad Gita may be looked upon as a discourse addressed by a guru to a chela who has fully determined upon the renunciation of all worldly desires and aspirations, but yet feels a certain despondency, caused by the apparent blankness of his existence.
As regards the moral teaching of the Bhagavad Gita, it is often asserted by those who do not appreciate the benefits of occult study, that, if everybody pursued this course, the world would come to a standstill; and, therefore, that this teaching can only be useful to the few, and not to ordinary people.
The doctrine of Karma, which embraces a wider field than that allowed it by orthodox pundits, who have limited its signification solely to religious observances, is the same in all philosophies, and is made by Krishna to include almost every good and bad act or even thought.

The Bhagavad Gita is a gospel for the whole world.
O Bhagavad Gita, with which Partha was illumined by Lord Narayana Himself, and which was composed within the Mahabharata by the ancient sage, Vyasa, O Divine Mother, the destroyer of rebirth, the showerer of the nectar of Advaita, and consisting of eighteen discourses-upon Thee, O Gita, O affectionate Mother, I meditate!

 Comments on the Bhagavad Gita, Synopsis of the Mahabharata
That cannot happen, of course, in the Gita, where the whole point of the argument is karmayoga, the Yoga of Chapter 2, as the means of salvation.
One theory is that the Gita was originally a popularized presentation of the Sankhya and Yoga Schools.
This is never called "bhaktiyoga" in the Gita, and the implication is always that Krishna wants everyone to be devoted to him, even if they are practicing another yoga.

 A summary of the Bhagavad gita
Those who are prepared to go through the battles of life, through self-discipline, stability of mind, detachment, surrendering to God with full devotion, wisdom, right discrimination and knowledge, are qualified to attain liberation and union with the Supreme.
Those who remain amidst society, unafraid of the burdens of life, and live a life of sacrifice fully surrendering to God are in fact more qualified for it.
The Bhagavad Gita teaches us how to live in this world, do our duty and yet remain like lotus leaves amidst water.

 EAWC: Ancient India
The Historical Context of The Bhagavad Gita and Its Relation to Indian Religious Doctrines
At first glance, this statement must seem odd to you: after all, The Bhagavad Gita describes a momentary surcease in a vast battle in which brothers fight brothers in bloody, historical technicolor.
The principal character, Arjuna, sits in a chariot in the midst of the mass of soldiers who wait -- surprisingly patiently -- as Arjuna looks into his conscience and questions his divine charioteer, Krishna.

 Caste System
To say that we should abolish the four orders of human beings (the caste system) also amounts to saying that the authority of the scriptures is to be brushed aside and substituted by some modern day thinker who argues that "In this day and age" the eternal principles do not apply.
These principles being eternal remain unchanged in the past, in the present and in the future.
