Gita Combo(Gita According to Gandhi+The Bhagavad Gita)

A sloka-by-sloka interpretation of one of the worlds most enduring and influential spiritual texts of the twentieth century. Among the various interpretations of the Bhagavad Gita the one by Mahatma Gandhi holds a unique position. Unlike other interpretations Gandhis commentary is direct and to the point not offering an opinion on the meaning of the text but fleshing out the message often relating it to his own extraordinary experiences.<P> Gandhi interpreted the Bhagavad Gita which he regarded as a gospel of selfless action over a period of nine months from February 24th to November 27th 1926 at Satyagrah Ashram Ahmedabad. The morning prayer meetings were followed by his discourses and discussions on the Bhagavad Gita. During this time?a period when Gandhi had withdrawn from mass political activity?he devoted much of his time and energy to translating the Gita from Sanskrit into his native Gujarati. As a result he met with his followers almost daily after morning prayer sessions to discuss the Gita?s contents and meaning as it unfolded before him. This book is the transcription of those daily sessions.<P> This book has been professionally proofread to ensure accuracy and readability on all devices.
