Rarely in a lifetime does a new spiritual classic appear that has the power to change people's lives and transform future generations. This is such a book. The Essence of the Bhagavad Gita: Explained by Paramhansa Yogananda shares the profound insights of Yogananda, author of Autobiography of a Yogi, as remembered by one of his few remaining direct disciples, Swami Kriyananda.

This revelation of India's best-loved scripture approaches it from an entirely fresh perspective, showing its deep allegorical meaning as well as its down-to-earth practicality. The themes presented are universal: how to achieve victory in life in union with the divine; how to prepare for life's "final exam", death, and what happens afterward; and how to triumph over all pain and suffering.

This is a piece of verbal history. You will not learn, in reading the Bhagavad Gita alone, what you will learn by hearing this book. There is understanding here that will reveal to you the meaning of the book you may have missed.

I have an autographed hardcover of this book and I have read it several times. I have found it deeply insightful. However, hearing it read by the author added a new dimension of understanding that seemed to further channel the great master’s ray to t listeners. I am deeply grateful for Swamiji’s work.

A beautiful edification of this timeless scripture
