Description
The Bhagavad Gita According to Gandhi is a spiritual text that has been deeply influential in India and beyond. Written by Mahatma Gandhi, it is based on his own interpretation of the 700-line section from the ancient Sanskrit war epic, the Mahabharata. Gandhi's commentary on the Bhagavad Gita was given during talks at the Satyagraha Ashram in Ahmedabad, India between February and November 1926. During this time, he devoted much of his energy to translating the text from Sanskrit into Gujarati, meeting with his followers almost daily to discuss its contents and meaning. This book is a transcription of those daily sessions, offering insight into Gandhi's understanding of the Gita's significance as a guide to action, devotional scripture, philosophical text, and inspirational reading.
