This volume of Essays on The Gita will cover up the doctrines and rituals explained differently by Sage Veda Vyasa various chapters. Different names for this part are coined by saints and Philosophers time to time. It is also true that we are willingly or unwillingly move through instances when mind and intellect get indulge in arbitrations related to our definite role in society. The Yoga of Knowledge and Actions are also closely linked up when we move on to execute some activities, claim some rights and perform some duties. We cannot claim that this volume will provide vivid translation of the Holy Scripture titled The Bhagavadgita; even it is not confirmed that descriptions, comments or narratives of all types duly proposed by different narrators are converged before preparing this document. It has some sort of linkages to the modern context and the context of Epics to work out relevance of the Holy Scripture. This book will also reflect relevance of The Bhagavadgita on the basis of its applicability and justifications. We can put us easily at the place of the fellow warrior if entire society is considered as a battle field; there requires a time tested guidance upon which one can rely perfectly for working out a solution; for establishing balance of mind and intellect; for regulating senses with the help of quality segments of Ego (AHAM); for feeling the presence of the Supreme Master besides all kinds of material as well as living manifestations. Realising the omnipresence of Brahman and acknowledging presence of such masterly guide at all instances of creation is the real objective to be accomplished during life span of a human. It can be accomplished under abled guidance of a Divine master.

""This is the deepest and most intimate truth of your real, spiritual existence."" Bhagavad Gita, also simply known as The Gita, is one of the most sacred Scriptures in the world. This philosophical poem focuses on a conversation between the Pandava prince Arjuna and the Beloved Lord Krishna, an Avatar of the god Vishnu. They converse about a variety of theological and philosophical issues (wisdom, devotion, self-knowledge, self-realization, ego, inner power, karma and dharma...). In this masterful study of the Bhagavad Gita, Sri Aurobindo explained the spiritual realization that not only liberated but transformed human nature, enabling a divine life on earth. The main objective of his teachings was to increase the level of consciousness of people and to aware people of their true selves. This book is a synthesis of many of the most important Indian spiritual philosophies, and is by far the most relevant to modern humanity and the most inspiring to westerners.

Can we take seriously religious experience, spirituality, and mysticism, without reducing them to either cultural-linguistic by-products or simply asserting their validity as a dogmatic fact? The contributors to this volume argue that we can, and they offer a new way: the "participatory turn," which proposes that individuals and communities have an integral and irreducible role in bringing forth ontologically rich religious worlds. They explore the ways this approach weaves together and gives voice to a number of robust trends in contemporary religious scholarship, including the renewed study of lived spirituality, the postmodern emphasis on embodied and gendered subjectivity, the admission of alternate epistemic perspectives, the irreducibility of religious pluralism, and the pragmatist emphasis on transformation—all trends that raise serious challenges to the currently prevalent linguistic paradigm. The first part of the book situates the participatory turn in the context of contemporary Religious Studies; the second part shows how this approach can be applied to various global traditions, ancient and contemporary, from Western esotericism to Jewish mysticism, Christianity, Hinduism, Sufism, and socially engaged Buddhism.

The Gita is a Book that has worn extraordinarily well and it is almost as fresh and still in its real substance quite as new, because always renewable in experience, as when it first appeared in or was written into the frame of the Mahabharata. Sri Aurobindo considers the message of the Gita to be the basis of the great spiritual movement which has led and will lead humanity more and more to it's liberation, that is to say, to its escape from falsehood and ignorance, towards the truth. The Mother has the following to describe the Book.
