As you all have heard about The Holy Book of Hindus, ‘SRIMAD BHAGAVAD GEETA’ also known as the divine song of LORD which has an epic part of our Indian history “Mahabharata” constituting of 18 chapters and 700 VERSES. Geeta is all about the conversation between Lord Krishna and Pandava Prince Arjuna , and it is believed to be a straight gospel from the lips of Lord Krishna as he advised Arjuna on the battlefield of kurukshetra. Lord Krishna taught Arjuna about the Dharma and the Shastra and the Soul (Aatma) and he teaches that our soul is immortal.

Here is one verse where Krishna says: (Aatma Kabhi Nahi Marti Bas Ek shareer Ko Chor kar Doosri shareer Main Chali Jaati Hain, Hay Arjun Tu Laddai kar Tu Yuddhh kar Tu apne niyati ko Sakshi Maan Kar Tu Yuddh Main Ek Yodhha ban.)

Here is one famous Quote by Lord Krishna in Bhagavad Geeta-

“ IF YOU DON’T FIGHT FOR WHAT YOU WANT,

DON’T CRY FOR WHAT YOU LOSE”.

There are some amazing facts and some opinions about the Bhagavad Geeta:-

Lord Krishna knows everything still he motivate and taught Arjuna to use the Violence to fight against the KAURAVAS and he taught Arjuna how to win the battle because of his DHARMA . Lord Krishna was the only one who provoke Arjuna to use the violence .

People have a myth that Geeta has a hidden meaning of life and death. There are people who swear by the fact that if they have any particular issue in their lives and open the chronicle to read it, they invariably find that they have turned to a page that holds an answer to that particular issue. Such is a sheer power of Bhagavad Gita.

They also believe that the Principles of Bhagavad Geeta can change your life .

The Geeta can be utilised like a Guide for everyday problem handbook of instructions about how every human being can imbibe the Vedanta philosophy in once own life.

People believe that Lord Krishna is the one who taught Arjuna that , if you don’t stand in the battle you will be treated as coward and if you stand in the battle you will be treated as a warrior (KSHASTRIYA).

Here is the interesting point that Lord Krishna proved to Arjuna that he is indeed BHRAMA by showing him VISHWAROOPA (cosmic form).

Few People have negative Point of view about the whole scenerio of MAHABHARATA that if Lord Krishna wished not to start fight they can do anything to solve the problem without using the violence.

Geeta asks you to do is to make a small shift on your thought process, start trusting in the grace of God and enjoy all you do in the material world, considering the work as service at his Lotus feet.

People believes that the greatness of the BHAGAVAD GEETA purifies the mind and completely distresses the individual.
