Rupa Publications India My Gita 1 Pc

The Gita is one of the most widely read books in India and the world. Hence, it comes as no surprise that there are numerous translations and interpretations of the Gita available. Many authors, academicians, and scholars all over the world have attempted to translate, interpret, and publish the Gita in their own words. Devdutt Pattanaik's book My Gita is also a part of that tradition. The unique feature of Pattanaik's book is that it is written in such a way that it adheres to the background and surroundings of modern times. The readers of My Gita will be able to connect with the book today because of the contemporary sense in which it has been written. The Gita originally has thousands of verses, and the reader today has no time to read all of them, so Devdutt Pattanaik takes care of this issue by going through the various themes of the Gita in his book. Krishna and Arjuna's dialogue may seem alien in today's world, but Pattanaik transcends that problem by connecting and adapting the teachings of Krishna to the present times. A world where the self is gaining more and more importance needs to look towards the world that we live in, needs to understand that we do not live in this world alone, and that love, care, and meaning are very important for life.
