About this listen

The ancient wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita for a modern audience.

The Bhagavad Gita contains timeless wisdom. Even today, thousands of years after it was first written, the key messages from the Bhagavad Gita are immensely powerful. It can help guide self-inquiry into what it means to live a purposeful and meaningful life. In this audiobook, Govind Chopra deconstructs key verses from the Indian holy book in the context of the challenges of 21st-century life.

Its key messages about self-control, self-knowledge, self-realization, and selfless action are more important than ever in today's click-bait culture.

In this audiobook, you will learn these 7 abiding lessons:

  • Lesson One: Work Hard, But Remain Unattached To The Outcome
  • Lesson Two: Your Mind Can Be Your Best Friend Or Your Worst Enemy
  • Lesson Three: The Present Moment Is All There Is, So Pay Attention To It
  • Lesson Four: Happiness Is A State Of Mind
  • Lesson Five: The True Nature Of Reality Is Unknowable
  • Lesson Six: Everybody Dies
  • Lesson Seven: Consider The Middle Way

Listened to this when I was extremely frustrated that my hard work was not producing rewards. I learned to work hard for the sake of working hard and for the sake of helping others. Detach myself from results and life will work itself out. Look forward to listening to more on Yoga philosophy and Hinduism.

Best Book

I’ve recently read a great translation of the Gita and arrived at my individual conclusions. One thing I noticed about this book was that it gives you a fresh perspective on these scriptures and breaks it down for someone who may not have grasped the full and unique lessons of the book. I recommend it highly.

A great complement
