Summary
The ancient wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita for a modern audience.
The Bhagavad Gita contains timeless wisdom. Even today, thousands of years after it was first written, the key messages from the Bhagavad Gita are immensely powerful. It can help guide self-inquiry into what it means to live a purposeful and meaningful life. In this audiobook, Govind Chopra deconstructs key verses from the Indian holy book in the context of the challenges of 21st-century life.
Its key messages about self-control, self-knowledge, self-realization, and selfless action are more important than ever in today's click-bait culture.
In this audiobook, you will learn these 7 abiding lessons:
- Lesson One: Work Hard, But Remain Unattached To The Outcome
- Lesson Two: Your Mind Can Be Your Best Friend Or Your Worst Enemy
- Lesson Three: The Present Moment Is All There Is, So Pay Attention To It
- Lesson Four: Happiness Is A State Of Mind
- Lesson Five: The True Nature Of Reality Is Unknowable
- Lesson Six: Everybody Dies
- Lesson Seven: Consider The Middle Way

Short but practical guide to the Gita
I have read and listened to a few books about the Bhagavad Gita. I first read the script in the early 1990s when I was backpacking around India and have returned to it on several occasions over the years. This guide is a little different to some of the others. There is not much in terms of content of the sacred text but there is plenty in terms of context and advice as to how the famous battlefield conversation between Arjuna and Pandava which covers such far reaching philosophical questions can be applied to the lives of people living in this technological age.
There are some great insights here and the author Govind Chopra is gifted with the ability to relate the stories to the issues that people face today. A short book yes. And one to return to.

Five stars
This is a very transcendental book, but also very practical because the author incorporates her own candid real life experiences and realizations from her spiritual practice and relationships that I found very helpful for my life.
