Dear Vasavites

Bhagavad Gita was told by Lord Krishna to Arjuna as an advise of what’s right and wrong when Arjuna was hesitant to go to war against his own cousins, the Kauravas. The events that led to this war are described in the Mahabharata, a 200 thousand verses long epic by sage Vyasa. Bhagavad Gita is a 700 verse epic divided into 18 chapters.

Bhagavad Gita talks about various paths to spirituality such as the right action (Karma Yoga), devotion (Bhakti Yoga), and knowledge (Jnana Yoga).
