{"product_id":"bhagavadgita-pocket-edition-the-scripture-of-mankind","title":"Bhagavadgita\/Pocket Edition (The Scripture of Mankind)","description":"This Pocket edition of the Bhagavad Gita will be useful for those who want to carry a great scripture even to their work spot in order to seek holy company in the midst of work. Though put in the context of a battle scene,the object of the Gita is not war- mongering but exhorting man to do his duty,whatever it be,in a spirit of detachment and dedication.Such an attitude can be sustained only if a man has unreserved faith in God and His supremacy over the destiny of man individually and of the cosmos as a whole.So beginning with exhortation to action,the Gita gives in substantiation of that teaching a universal theology without any sectarian or dogmatic stance,which would be found congenial by all those who are not in the grip pf those narrow loyalties.For this reason we have designated it as the scripture of the mankind. A study of this small text of seven hundred verses will convince any one that such an encomium of the wisdom contained in it is not a misplaced over-estimate.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 8178235447\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.8178235447.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Transliterated \u0026amp; Translated by Swami Tapasyananda\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item is very worn but is perfectly usable.
