Excellent Treatise on YogaSeptember 22, 2008 I have been reading this book since last 11 years and I do not know as to how many times I have gone through it, but each time it gives me new insights and as if it is an ocean and the more deeper you delve in it you will get more and more. Unfortunately people only keep it in Pooja and do not read it.This copy I purchased recently to gift it to someone who has interest in Yoga and meditation and is worthy og reading it.

God Talks with ArjunaJune 5, 2008 Yes, it'a another copy of the Bhagavad Gita, but this one is very special. The rich blue hard back binding is only the beginning. The Words are timeless and the commentary by Yogananada worth every cent.

i havent yet finisheed the volumes, however from what i have read, i am thoroughly convinced about the spirituality of the Bhagavad Gita as well as Sri Yogananda directly receiving this inspired commentary from the universe itself. This writing harmonifies Vedantic teachings with the teachings of Christ. In this era of religious flux and intolerance what is needed is the calming words of inspired and wise masters like Sri Yogananda to show us all that we have strive to see the unity in us all rather that the differences. Deeply moving and filled with wisdom Sri Yoganandas words will move people to discovering a wholistic view of life and answers the questions we all have about life and existence. Every page in this book reveals a little bit about the reader and sets him/her on a path of realisation and discovery like no other.Let the world know that the great masters of the world who lived and still live among us need to be given a chance to awaken the Krishna and Christ in each of us. The world will then truly be a better place for all. Read this commentary, understand it and hold on to the wisdom in it for it will serve you for all eternity.

How can I review a book which I am using to review myself or learn to get better? I am not the right person to comment on it.
An excellent book and I try my best to read atleast one page or a verse a day.

There are other translations and other commentaries on the Bhagavad Gita, but this is by far the best I've seen. The author explains the deep allegory that the book represents. The story takes place on a battlefield, but the battle is one that everyone must fight. There is a constant struggle inside of us all between the spiritual and the material, between the eternal and the transient, between good and evil. Paramahansa Yogananda provides excellent insights into this fight, and inspires the reader to fight harder and with more determination. I strongly recommend this book to all spiritual seekers.
