The only available Gujarati translation of BhagavadGita, this great poem is made available on this application for the first time. The conversation between Krishna and Arjuna threw light on many important aspects of Hinduism such as life and death, karma, devotion, jnana, yoga, supreme reality and duality. Arjuna was convinced that death on the battlefield was that merely of physical frame and not of the inner immortal soul. In his unique and mesmerizing style, Krishna answered Arjun's array of questions covering sin, slander and siblings to death, duty, desire, duality and divinity. As a result he chose to lay down his arms and sought counsel from his charioteer and friend, Krishna.

When Arjuna saw revered teachers, beloved friends and close relatives on his enemy side, he was overtaken by grief and despair. The message of Gita was not delivered on banks of Ganges, nor inside caves, monasteries or at the outset of any hermit's dwelling place but was conferred on the battlefield filled with belligerent armies, awaiting fierce encounter. Bhagavad Gita is part of epic Mahabharata and is contained in Bhishma Parva, chapter 23-40. The 700 verses rendered by Lord Krishna are considered as quintessence of Hinduism and reflects the wisdom of Upanishads. On the battlefield of Kurukshetra, Lord Krishna gave an inspiring message to Arjuna, which became known as Bhagvad Gita, Bhagawat Geeta or Srimad Bhagavad Gita - the song celestial.
