“The Gita is the universal mother. She turns away nobody. Her door is wide open to anyone who knocks. A true votary of Gita does not know what disappointment is... When disappointment stares me in the face and all alone I see not one ray of light, I go back to the Bhagavad-Gita. I find a verse here and a verse there, and I immediately begin to smile in the midst of overwhelming tragedies -- and my life has been full of external tragedies -- and if they have left no visible or indelible scar on me, I owe it all to the teaching of Bhagavad-Gita.”-M. K. GandhiThe concept of Ahimsa (non-violence) was central to Gandhi's actions during the Indian freedom struggle. Gandhi was a true leader that brought together all classes and sects under one umbrella to achieve Swaraj and his views and thoughts were highly inspired by the Bhagavad Gita.This book is a beautiful and impinging śloka by śloka rendition of the Bhagavad Gita by Gandhi. Discussing various concepts of Hindu philosophy, the book is a reflection of Gandhi's views on Gita. This book offers great insight into Gandhi's ideologies and also the nature of a major strand of Indian freedom struggle.
