Bhagavadgita in Sanskrit, Transliteration, and Translation

The Bhagavadgita is the Song of the Lord. Hindus read the Bhagavgadgita as Christians, Jews and Muslims read the Bible and the Koran. Simplicity, sincerity, universality and profundity are the hallmark of the Bhagavadgita. It provides guidelines for daily living with no dogmas and ritual overtones. It encourages and supports your individuality. It also explains the consequence of errant life. Total surrender to Bhagavan releases the devotee from the ills of the Samsaric world. This book is for those people who are curious about Hindu religion, beginners in Sanskrit and the learned, if one is looking for word for word transliteration, word superscription, rearrangement of superscript-words into a readable form in English. The long compound words in Sanskrit are broken down into digestible syllabic and or word bites with superscription wherever there is a need. Diacritical marks decorate the transliterated words so that you can pronounce the words like a native Sanskritist.


The English words are modern and yet retain the flavor and grace contained in the Sanskrit verses. Each page nestles two verses in two boxes with no break and no carry-over to the next page. An addendum explains a chosen word or verse. The message is clear, concise and to the point. All can revel in the Grace of Bhagavan and attain fulfillment of life. The beauty about the Bhagavadgita is that it is universal in its appeal with no religious accretion and no intent to conversion. Hinduism as a term is an external appellation from Non-Hindus. Its original name is Sanatana Dharma (Eternal Law or Eternal Order) commensurate with Rta (Cosmic Order).
