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.
