Answer:

The Bhagavad Gita (“Song of God” or “Song of the Lord”) is among the most important religious texts of Hinduism and easily the best known. It has been quoted by writers, poets, scientists, theologians, and philosophers – among others – for centuries and is often the introductory text to Hinduism for a Western audience. It is commonly referred to as the Gita and was originally part of the great Indian epic Mahabharata. Its date of composition, therefore, is closely associated with that of the epic – c. 5th-3rd century BCE – but not all scholars agree that the work was originally included in the Mahabharata text and so date it later to c. 2nd century BCE.

The Gita is a dialogue between the warrior-prince Arjuna and the god Krishna who is serving as his charioteer at the Battle of Kurukshetra fought between Arjuna’s family and allies (the Pandavas) and those of the prince Duryodhana and his family (the Kauravas) and their allies. This dialogue is recited by the Kauravan counselor Sanjaya to his blind king Dhritarashtra (both far from the battleground) as Krishna has given Sanjaya mystical sight so he will be able to see and report the battle to the king.

Answer:

essay on why should I read Bhagvad Gita'.

Explanation:

Srimad Bhagavad Gita teaches you how to handle that knowledge. It not only inculcates in you, the right and unbiased perspective of observing and knowing your own self as well as the entire creation but also teaches you how to handle that knowledge acquired through such observance

. It is one of the greatest books in the world. One who understands the Gita understands much about this world and beyond. It sums up the whole philosophy of life and death.

The Bhagavad Gita was a favourite book with Mahatma Gandhi, Tilak, Aurobindo Ghose, and many other Indian saints and sages. It has been the favourite book of the sages of other countries too. Thoreau, the great American philosopher, said, "I bathe my intellect with Bhagavad Gita every morning." No other book satisfies the soul as does the Gita.

The popularity of the Gita is based on its philosophical teachings. Lord Krishna's message to the war-frightened Arjuna is as truer today as it was in the days of the Pandvas.

This book teaches us to do our duty conscientiously and be never disheartened in the face of great perils. When Arjuna was hesitating to fight his kinsmen, Lord Krishna advised him that by shirking the war, he was shirking his duty, which was a sin.

Today the Gita has been translated in all languages of the world. The Germans have produced libraries on the Gita. Today the greatest scholars of the Gita are not Indians but Europeans.

In fact, most of our scholars learn to love the Gita through the European sources. It was Edwin Arnold's Song Celestial (A translation of the Bhagavad Gita) that made Gandhiji take interest in this book which became his lifelong companion. No doubt this gave him spiritual power.
