Gita

            The Bhagavad-Gita- Gita is considered by eastern and western scholars alike to be among the greatest spiritual books the world has ever known. In a very clear and wonderful way the Supreme Lord Krishna describes the science of self-realization and the exact process by which a human being can establish their eternal relationship with God. In terms of pure, spiritual knowledge the Bhagavad-Gita- Gita is incomparable. Its intrinsic beauty is that its knowledge applies to all human beings and does not postulate any sectarian ideology or secular view. It is approachable from the sanctified realms of all religions and is glorified as the epitome of all spiritual teachings. This is because proficiency in the Bhagavad-Gita- Gita reveals the eternal principles which are fundamental and essential for spiritual life from all perspectives and allows one to perfectly understand the esoteric truths hidden within all religious scriptures. The primary purpose of the Bhagavad-Gita- Gita is to illuminate for all of humanity the realization of the true nature of divinity; for the highest spiritual conception and the greatest material perfection is to attain love of God!.
             Bhagavad-Gita Gita is part of the epic 'The Mahabharata'. The story of the Mahabharata is about a feud between royal cousins, the Pandavas and the Kauravas. From their younger days, Duryodhana and his brothers (the Kauravas), harbor ill will towards Arjuna and his brothers (the Pandavas). The Kauravas try to harm the Pandavas in many ways but without success. The hatred culminates in the Kauravas refusing to share the kingdom which belonged to both. This results in war. Krishna is a cousin to both the Kauravas and the Pandavas and agrees to be Arjuna's charioteer. Since the war is one between cousins, there are relatives and friends on both sides fighting each other. Just when the two sides have assembled on the battle field, Arjuna breaks down.
