Sri Krishna's Bhagavad-Gita
The Bhagavad-gita is the famous philosophical discourse that took place
between Lord Krishna and the warrior Arjuna, just before the onset of the
great Bharata War (c. 3138 BC). Although widely published and read by itself,
the Bhagavad-gita originally appears as an episode in the Sixth Book of the
Mahabharata (Bhismaparvan, 23-40). (See Mahabharata Home Page ) In this treatise of 700 verses, Lord
Krishna systematically surveys the major Vedic dharmas and shows how each
directs a person toward the ultimate conclusion, the "most confidential of all
knowledge." He analyzes the performance of sacrifices and the worship of
demigods; He discusses the yogas of work, meditation, and knowledge. In each
case, Krishna shows how it leads to the "most secrets of all secrets, " pure
loving devotional service to God. "Always think of Me and become My devotee.
Worship Me and offer you homage unto Me." This, Krishna says is "the most
confidential part of knowledge." 1
