ABOUT THE BOOK

Bhagavad Gita As It Is (Original Edition) is a monumental, globally celebrated spiritual masterpiece that stands as the definitive English presentation of India's foundational philosophical treatise. The core philosophy of this text centers on delivering the sacred conversation between Lord Krishna and the warrior Arjuna without the slightest adulteration, personal interpretation, or secular dilution. Unlike numerous contemporary versions that treat the Gita as an abstract allegory or psychological metaphor, this edition presents the dialogue as an objective historical reality and a practical manual for absolute spiritual realization. The book systematically unfolds the five primary truths of existence: the material nature (prakriti), time (kala), activities (karma), the living entities (jivatma), and the Supreme Controller (Isvara). Featuring the original Devanagari Sanskrit scripts, word-for-word Roman transliterations, precise grammatical equivalents, and extensive purports, this text serves as a meticulous map to guide humanity away from the illusions of material consciousness and toward the highest platform of unalloyed devotional service (bhakti-yoga).

ABOUT THE AUTHOR 

His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada was a world-renowned philosopher, translator, and the foundational acharya (spiritual master) of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON). Writing with the clear, razor-sharp authority of a pure devotee completely surrendered to the Vedic tradition, his authorial voice balances rigorous scriptural scholarship with deep, universal compassion. After arriving in America in 1965 at the advanced age of seventy with practically no material possessions, he went on to build a global spiritual movement, translate dozens of volumes of Vedic literature, and establish standard ashrams worldwide. His writing avoids abstract intellectual speculation in favor of direct, punchy, and highly practical instructions, ensuring that the deepest secrets of ancient Indian theology remain accessible to the modern world.
