by Krishna Prem (Author)
The Bhagavad Gita is nowadays acknowledged as one of the world's great spiritual classics. Many translations and
commentaries have been written about it from many diverse points of view - monist and dualist; pantheist and theist.
This commentary by Sri Krishna Prem is written with his experience that "the Gita is based on direct knowledge of
Reality, and of the Path that leads to that Reality." His perspective and interpretation is that the Gita is a textbook
of Yoga, by which he means "the Path by which man unites his finite self with Infinite Being."
Sri Krishna Prem (1898-1965) was born Ronald Henry Nixon in England and became a widely acclaimed saint in
India. When he passed away in 1965, he was hailed by then President of India Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan as a "great
soul" or mahatma.
His interpretation of the Gita is not only inspiring and thought provoking but also a helpful guide to all spiritual seekers.
