In My Gita, acclaimed mythologist Devdutt Pattanaik demystifies The Bhagavad Gita for the contemporary reader. His unique approach - thematic rather than verse by verse - makes the ancient treatise eminently accessible.
In a world that seems spellbound by argument over dialogue, vi-vaad over sam-vaad, Devdutt highlights how Krishna nudges Arjuna to understand rather than judge his relationships. This becomes relevant today when we are increasingly indulging and isolating the self (self-improvement, self-actualization, self-realization - even selfies!). We forget that we live in an ecosystem of others, where we can nourish each other with food, love and meaning, even when we fight.
So let My Gita inform your Gita.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Very beautiful & unlike any other.

After reading this book I am convinced that this book should be called ‘Geeta 101’ or even better ‘Sanatan Philosophy for Dummies’. The chronological and historical summary of ideas in Sanatan Dharma are just what India requires today as an ordinary folk is showered with conflicting ideologies from different Schools while he/she assumes it to be emanating from a single source and thus ending up getting confused and giving up all together or end up being ambivalent towards the whole thing.
We do not even realise that the modern culture or religion or whatever we can call it these days is an alphabet soup of various ideas that originated at different points of time in societies very diverse from ours and for good measure got mixed up with foreign influences too. Most advocates of religion and culture possibly are ignorant of the chronology and the vocabulary of the scriptures and how the same word meant different things at different times.
Devdutt, the author (not his twitter low life version) is Brihaspati, I have no doubt on it.
This is my opinion.
Profound wisdom.

If you’re looking for an introduction to Gita, it’s a great listen. Narration is done well to keep you engaged.
I however, was looking for a little more of actual content from the Gita and felt that it’s limited.
A good listen for someone looking for an introduction to Gita

Narration was poor

But the fact that Hinduism itself proposes infinite possibilities, it will take time to understand it…. I hope I would be able to satisfy my knowledge hunger with more such texts.
Shri Devdutt Pattanaik has put the points, with such deep meaning in an understandable way and I started loving his writings. Thanks and keep sharing your thoughts. I loved the narration of Shri Vivek as well, his voice is clear and with appropriate annotations, he made the listening of this book impact full.
