The Bhagavad Gita

De: anonymous

Narrado por: Sagar Arya

Sanskrit for "Song of the Lord", the Bhagavad Gita is a 700-verse Hindu epic that constitutes part of the faith's vast cornerstone work, the "Mahabharata." The book provides timeless truths and indispensable advice for believers trying to overcome internal tensions, doubt and indecision. The teachings are conveyed in the form of a dialogue between the Pandava general Arjuna and the deity Krishna, who helps Arjuna understand his position in the Kurukshetra War, and guides him towards the right course of action. The Gita's treatment of duty and devotion has inspired many, including the peaceful activist Mahatma Gandhi, who referred to it as his "spiritual dictionary".

Best Version of Bhagavad Gita w/out Commentary!!!

if you are just looking to listen to the Sri'Mad Bhagavad Gita without any lengthy introduction before each chapter, one with good quality and a great performance, than this is undoubtedly the best version.
As always, Sagar Arya's voice and performance is outstanding! I now just go through his performances to see if he's narrated a book before I check anywhere else.
This version is the best without commentary without question. if however you're looking for insight, then maybe look elsewhere. But I like having both for the most important ancient texts and I already had one with an excellent commentary and needed one without introductions and I picked this one as soon as I saw who the narrator was. No one can beat Sagar Arya's performances or his deep soothing voice.
I couldn't recommend this copy more!

Unfiltered and pure

This is my favorite version of the Gita because it’s pure and unadulterated. Listening to this, you’ll gain awareness of our sick society where people reproduce based solely on physical attraction, producing masses of ignorant people. The US is falling apart because it embraces adharma and tamasic practices. Bharat is on track to be the next world power, as Hindus regain dharma and proper social order.

Follow the Gita and your life will improve. Even as a lonely ABCD in America, the Gita has shown me that I’m better off being unappealing to American women. I used to feel sad that the racism made it impossible to get married here. Even with a top school degree, wisdom, and a tall, athletic build, Americans see Indians as inferior. Indian women who grow up here also see Indian men as inferior. I believed it for most of my life. It’s a sick, racist, tamasic culture.

The Gita showed me that I am an heir of the greatest civilization the world has known. There is no Western civilization, because they continue to butcher one another and tend to think with their genitalia. Technology and entertainment are not civilization. Civilized people don’t butcher one another. They don’t invade nations on false pretenses and over the most minor acts of aggression, which may really be a karmic retribution.

The Western world has a hair trigger when it comes to war. Compare this to Krishna, who took many attempts to broker peace before war became necessary.

Platitudes like “turn the other cheek” are means of manipulating brown and black people into submission. The Catholic Church recently apologized for the Doctrine of Discovery, which encouraged violent conquest of indigenous people. They never turned the other cheek.

I’m so proud to hail from an intellectual tradition where we try to put forth the best action in the moment. Platitudes are for bumper stickers, not for life.

Thanks to the Gita, I meditate every day now, and my life is improving, even while I continue to exist in a racist nation.

I don’t understand why white Americans hate us so much. The seem to like stretching exercises called yoga and gulp down “Indian food” at buffets. When they need to attain great wealth, they hire disposable Indian intellectual talent, cheating them out of the fruits of their actions.

They didn’t mind my father helping a California university get its accreditation. They didn’t mind me slaving over code to stop American doctors from killing patients with medication errors. But in public, I am a pariah. Even a Brahmin is dirt in America.

Rest assured, the retribution is here. He has a name — Donald. He even said he is the retribution. I’ve known this for decades and warned people about him back when he was on The Apprentice. He has work to do. Despite his unpleasant demeanor, he is the rakshasa who will deliver a karmic retribution to the Western world. I don’t like him. He has made life harder for me. But he will be the end of Western uncivilization.

Jai Hind!
