Part of an ancient Hindu epic poem, the dialogue of the Bhagavad Gita takes place on a battlefield, where a war for the possession of a North Indian kingdom is about to ensue between two noble families related by blood. The epic's hero, young Prince Arjuna, is torn between his duty as a warrior and his revulsion at the thought of his brothers and cousins killing each other over control of the realm. Frozen by this ethical dilemma, he debates the big questions of life and death with the supreme Hindu deity Krishna, cleverly disguised as his charioteer. By the end of the story, Eastern beliefs about mortality and reincarnation, the vision and practice of yoga, the Indian social order and its responsibilities, family loyalty, spiritual knowledge, and the loftiest pursuits of the human heart are explored in depth. --from publisher description.;Arjuna's conflict and despair -- The way of discernment -- The way of action -- The way of knowledge -- The way of renunciation -- The way of meditation -- The way of realized knowledge -- The transcendent Brahman -- The king of secrets -- The sublime presence of divinity -- Vision of the universal form -- The way of love -- Primordial nature and the person -- The divine and ungodly natures -- The three types of faith -- The supreme secret of Yoga -- Textual illuminations -- Sanskrit text.
