    A very simple translation of the Gita

    Ms. Gajjar gives a very simple translation of what is arguably the most complex of all the well-known scriptures of the world. Although much of the metaphysical, philosophical and yogic content of the original Gita is missing the essential message is still preserved and maybe even brought out with greater clarity in this little book. An ideal translation for absolute beginners and children. But my advice is: don't stop here. Use this book as a springboard for yourself and your children to leap into the spiritual depths of this ancient scripture
