Bhagwad Gita literally translates to “Song of God.” It is part of the Mahabharata, a grand Hindu epic about war between the Kauravas and the Pandavas. It is largely about being a mindful, conscientious, and productive individual. It is considered as the highest Hindu philosophy as it proposes practical tips on everyday life’s feelings, thoughts, and actions, as well as how to be a powerful member of the community by being an enriched human being.
Being the embodiment of Hindu wisdom, a regular, daily, and attentive reading of the Bhagwad Gita amounts to the study of all Vedic literature. By reading this book, one has already received the necessary knowledge comparable to studying the Itihasas, Puranas, and Vedas combined. It is said that one can satisfy and please God through the devotional reading of the Bhagwad Gita.
