Our friend Kumuda (Sharon Janis) has done an excellent job of putting the Bhagavad Gita to music using the traditional Gita melody used daily in many ashrams in India. She sings the Gita in the English translation by Swami Nirmalananda, and her rendition is as inspiring as it is beautiful. We highly recommend this 2 CD set, which is available on iTunes for only $9.99. CLICK HERE to access the CD at iTunes, or use the iTunes search function and type in “Glorious Bhagavad Gita” or “Kumuda”
What is the Bhagavad Gita? Several thousand years ago in north-central India, two people sat in a chariot in the midpoint of a great battlefield. One of them, the yogi Arjuna, knew that it would be not be long before the conflict would begin. So he asked Krishna, the Master of Yoga, what should be his attitude and perspective in this moment. And above all: What should he do?
There was no time to spare in empty words. In a brief discourse, later turned into seven hundred Sanskrit verses by the sage Vyasa, Krishna outlined to Arjuna the way to live an entire life so as to gain perfect self-knowledge and self-mastery.
