This presentation of the Bhagavad Gita is one of the most comprehensive books available today on the science and philosophy of Yoga.

 

This monumental work breaks new ground as a revelation of the Gita's profoundest spiritual, psychological, and metaphysical truths, long obscured by metaphor and allegory. Yogananda clearly outlines the Gita's balanced path of meditation and right activity, and shows how we can create for ourselves a life of spiritual integrity, serenity, simplicity and joy. Includes in-depth discussions on Kriya Yoga -- what it is, and how it hastens our spiritual evolution.

 

Among the world's sacred writings, there is perhaps none more universal in its appeal than the Bhagavad Gita. Through the centuries, its sublime and ennobling counsel has endeared it to truth-seekers of East and West alike. Yet its deeper meaning, cloaked in allegory, has remained obscure.

Exploring the Gita's psychological, spiritual, and metaphysical depths, Yogananda reveals the innermost essence of this majestic scripture and presents an enlightening and deeply encouraging guide to who we are, why we were created, and our place and purpose in the vast cosmic scheme of things.
