Interpretations Of The Shrimad Bhagwat Gita

We all come to this earth with a purpose. Our existence itself is for going through new experiences, making inferences out of them, learning, and moving on. In fact, at every step, we are seekers of knowledge. We have to learn and move on to the next Gigha plane. This goes on in our world's journey of self-completion. The day we realise our purpose for existence on this earth, that very day we become enlightened, or the learned one. The irony is that unlike our yesteryear education, where Gurukul Parampara existed and every learning was associated with a blessing from Guru, education in today's parlance has become commercial and money-oriented. From Guru to Shishya, everyone is seeking education to make money out of it. Lost are the traditions, the value system, and the orientation in education. It is time that educationists and academicians give it a serious thought, and reorient and revamp our education system.

The Bhagavad-Gita, with the commentary of Sri Sankaracharya

Commentary on 'The Bhagavad Geeta' by Swami Mukundananda

The Bhagavadgita is one phase of the Tripod of Indian philosophy and culture, the other two phases being the Upanishads and the Brahmasutras. While the Upanishads lay the foundation of the loftiest reach possible for humanity and the Brahmasutras logically elucidate the intricate issues involved in the Upanishads, the Bhagavadgita blends together the Transcendent and the Immanent features of the Ultimate Reality, bringing together into an integrated whole knowledge and action, the inner and the outer, the individual and the society, man and God, all which are portrayed as facets of a universal Operation, presenting entire life and all life as a perfectly complete organic wholeness, leaving nothing unsaid and attempting to solve every problem of life.

Srimad Bhagavad Gita is now widely recognised as a scriptural text of worldwide importance. Sri Ramanuja is one of the noted commentators on the Vedanta Sutras of Badarayana and the Bhagavad Gita. This has brought him recognition as one of the greatest exponents of Vedanta from the Vaishnava point of view. Swami Adidevananda, one of the distinguished scholarly monks of the Ramakrishna Order who retained his inherent Sri Vaishnava heritage, has translated the original verses and Sri Ramanuja’s commentary into English. This book is of special importance because it is the only English translation now available with the original Sanskrit commentary as well. The book opens with meditation on the Gita followed by the Gitartha-sangraha of Sri Yamunacharya with English translation. Swami Tapasyananda, who was a scholarly monk with deep devotional temperament and one of the Vice-Presidents of the Ramakrishna Order, has written a scholarly introduction to this work.
