Book Review:
This is the second volume of A. Parthasarathy's work on the Bhagavad Gita, one of the principal scriptures of Hinduism. First published in 1994, this volume covers chapters VII through XII of the Gita, which is a 700-verse dialogue between Prince Arjuna and his guide Lord Krishna on the battlefield of Kurukshetra. The chapters covered include the Yoga of Knowledge and Wisdom (VII), Yoga of the Imperishable Brahman (VIII), Yoga of Royal Knowledge and Royal Secret (IX), Yoga of Supreme Manifestation (X), Yoga of the Vision of the Cosmic Form (XI), and Yoga of Devotion (XII). The book includes the original Sanskrit verses along with English translation and detailed commentary. Parthasarathy's commentary is clear and accessible, making the profound philosophical concepts of the Gita understandable to modern readers. This is an invaluable resource for students of Hindu philosophy and anyone seeking spiritual wisdom.
