Chapter Introductions Clarify Key Concepts, And Notes And A Glossary Explain Sanskrit Terms.Easwaran Grew Up In The Hindu Tradition In India, And Learned Sanskrit From A Young Age. He Was A Professor Of English Literature Before Coming To The West On A Fulbright Scholarship. A Gifted Teacher, He Is Recognized As An Authority On The Indian Classics And World Mysticism.The Bhagavad Gita Opens, Dramatically, On A Battlefield, As The Warrior Arjuna Turns In Anguish To His Spiritual Guide, Sri Krishna, For Answers To The Fundamental Questions Of Life. Yet, As Easwaran Points Out, The Gita Is Not What It Seems Its Not A Dialogue Between Two Mythical Figures At The Dawn Of Indian History. The Battlefield Is A Perfect Backdrop, But The Gitas Subject Is The War Within, The Struggle For Selfmastery That Every Human Being Must Wage If He Or She Is To Emerge From Life Victorious.Arjunas Struggle In The Bhagavad Gita Is Acutely Modern. He Has Lost His Way On The Battlefield Of Life And Turns To Find The Path Again By Asking Direct, Uncompromising Questions Of His Spiritual Guide, Sri Krishna, The Lord Himself. Krishna Replies In 700 Verses Of Sublime Instruction On Living And Dying, Loving And Working, And The Nature Of The Soul.Easwaran Shows The Gitas Relevance To Us Today As We Strive, Like Arjuna, To Do What Is Right.No One In Modern Times Is More Qualified No, Make That As Qualified To Translate The Epochal Classics Of Indian Spirituality Than Eknath Easwaran.
