This
study will be the first of a series of studies of The
Bhagavad
Gita the great spiritual
literature of India. The verses of Bhagavad Gita are the
visions of the seers, sages
and thinkers of ancient India. Going beyond all other
considerations, whether political or economic systems,
is the appeal of this Indian message to the human heart.
The reading and understanding of these verses give the
vitality and strength in any human endeavor. This
study is for devotional reading and understanding the
meaning to help one to dive into its depth. Sri Krishna
starts the Bhagavad Gita
pointing grief stricken Arjuna his
lowness of spirit, unbecoming to an Aryan, and
dishonorable; and continues:
'Do not yield to unmanliness, O
Parthā. It does not worthy of you. Shake off this
base faint-heartedness and
arise, O scorcher of enemies!'
