The Bhagavad Gita, “the Song of God,” is a classic Indian spiritual scripture, a story from the Hindu faith tradition about following your duty, your dharma, the universal law that maintains the harmony and unity of all creation. It is also about self-mastery, and about creating a fulfilling and worthwhile life; it is an intimate conversation at a critical moment between a devoted soul and the Divine in which the teachings of yoga are explained to achieve liberation. The Gita is a transfer of ancient wisdom for desperate times, for the moment you want to give up.
