Bhagavad Gita is a manual of life. It enunciates the ancient philosophy of Vedanta. Vedanta presents the eternal and universal principles of life and living, which transcends the barriers of race, religion, caste and creed. These principles equip one with a strong intellect to meet the challenges of the world at all levels –social, official and domestic. One enjoys a rare combination of being dynamic and successful in one’s endeavours externally and being happy and peaceful internally. Above all Vedanta ushers one towards the ultimate goal of human perfection within the state of spiritual enlightenment.
