You hold in your hands a spiritual treasure—one of those Books whose titles are written without quotation marks: the Bible, the Gospel, the Torah, the Qur’an, the Bhagavad Gita… The Bhagavad Gita is called the quintessence of the four Vedas, of the one hundred and eight Upanishads, and of the six systems of Indian philosophy; it is believed to contain the infinite wisdom of all the sacred scriptures of the world. It represents the highest dimension of human consciousness and points the way to the Absolute. The commentaries by Paramahansa Yogananda, the author of the famous “Autobiography of a Yogi,” reveal to the reader the profound meaning of this book of books.
