Product Description
by Purohit Swami (Translator), W. B. Yeats (Preface by)
The Bhagavad Gita has served as a guide to liberation for over two
thousand years. It advocates an integrated path of action without
attachment to results. It has inspired and influenced Western
thought since the first translation over two hundred years ago.
Poets, philosophers, thinkers, and scientists have attested to its
wisdom and life-changing impact.
The Upanishads are the oldest spiritual teachings of the forest
sages of India. They are the realization of an absolute Being called
Spirit or Atman. They try to answer all of our deepest questions
and doubts to provide a path towards Self-Realization through
knowledge and wisdom.
Purohit Swami was a dedicated pioneer in spreading the wisdom of
India. He moved to Britain in the 1930s at the behest of his spiritual
teacher. He collaborated with the Irish poet W.B. Yeats on the
translation of the Upanishads.
