Description
The Bhagavad Gita, as translated and interpreted by Mahatma M. K. Gandhi, presents one of the world’s most profound spiritual texts through the eyes of India’s greatest moral philosopher and freedom leader. Gandhi approaches the Gita not as a scholar or theologian, but as a seeker of truth and self-mastery. To him, the Gita is not a call to war, but a guide to inner peace, selfless action, and devotion to duty. He viewed it as a “spiritual dictionary” — a manual for righteous living amid life’s conflicts and temptations. In this deeply personal and inspiring translation, Gandhi explains how the teachings of Krishna to Arjuna reflect the eternal struggle between good and evil within every human being. His interpretation emphasizes karma yoga — the path of action without attachment — and the pursuit of truth through love, discipline, and faith. This edition is not just a scripture but a living philosophy that continues to inspire readers seeking balance between spiritual ideals and practical life.
