Narrative Concering Books The Bhagavad Gita: A Walkthrough for Westerners
The Bhagavad Gita has been called India’s greatest contribution to the world. For more than five thousand years, this great scripture has shown millions in the East how to fill their lives with serenity and love. In these pages, Jack Hawley brings these ancient secrets to Western seekers in a beautiful prose version that makes the story of the Gita clear and exciting, and makes its truths understandable and easy to apply to our busy lives.The Gita is a universal love song sung by God to His friend man. It can’t be confined by any creed. It is a statement of the truths at the core of what we all already believe, only it makes those truths clearer, so they become immediately useful in our daily lives. These truths are for our hearts, not just our heads.
The Gita is more than just a book, more than mere words or concepts. There is an accumulated potency in it. To read the Gita is to be inspired in the true sense of the term: to be “in-spirited,” to inhale the ancient and ever-new breath of spiritual energy.

I've read it through 3 times, each time gaining greater understanding. It's now a daily read which I enjoy as it is my time for introspection and developing awareness of Atma.Will be coming back for a re-read.
Best introduction that I would fully recommend to the Gita.
I was completely enthralled by this book! As ancient Hindu scripture, I was surprised by how compatible it is with Christianity and my own personal, religious beliefs. The lessons taught are completely Christian!! I anticipate that I will refer to this book a lot in the future--as I would other scriptures.
A explantion of the Gita in a clear and easy to read style. Made me revisit the tradional text and stimulated my interest in Indian philosophy.
Inspiring book. For every day reading.
