Summary

In My Gita, acclaimed mythologist Devdutt Pattanaik demystifies The Bhagavad Gita for the contemporary reader. His unique approach - thematic rather than verse by verse - makes the ancient treatise eminently accessible.

In a world that seems spellbound by argument over dialogue, vi-vaad over sam-vaad, Devdutt highlights how Krishna nudges Arjuna to understand rather than judge his relationships. This becomes relevant today when we are increasingly indulging and isolating the self (self-improvement, self-actualization, self-realization - even selfies!). We forget that we live in an ecosystem of others, where we can nourish each other with food, love and meaning, even when we fight.

So let My Gita inform your Gita.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Simplifying Gita. I didn’t know how deep this literature is

Loved it. I didn’t understand everything but I am not sure if any can. Highly recommend it.

Outstanding. Articulate. Thoughtful. Inspirational.

Devdutt has made an outstanding contribution to humanity with this book. The narration is clear and easy to understand.
This is one to listen to over and over again and reflect deep within to enable ones own interpretation to evolve and crystallise.

Okish.

As this is his interpretation of Geeta he is high lighting the points he thinks are important. And because of that he is jumping around all over the place. It is difficult to get full understanding of Gita if you do not follow the proper sequence of Gita.
