The Bhagavad Gita is perhaps the single most important text to originate from India. People with a variety of interests -- from the sanyasi-s who have renounced all worldly concerns to the politicians -- have sought wisdom and guidance from this great text. In this Course, our effort will be to derive lessons from the Bhagavad Gita relevant to our daily lives. How can we be engaged in the world while at the same time being true to our spiritual life?
