In My Gita, acclaimed mythologist Devdutt Pattanaik demystifies The Bhagavad Gita for the contemporary reader. His unique approach-thematic rather than verse-by-verse-makes the ancient treatise eminently accessible, combined as it is with his trademark illustrations and simple diagrams. In a world that seems spellbound by argument over dialogue, vi-vaad over sam-vaad, Devdutt highlights how Krishna nudges Arjuna to understand rather than judge his relationships. This becomes relevant today when we are increasingly indulging and isolating the self (self-improvement, self-actualization, self-realization-even selfies!).We forget that we live in an ecosystem of others, where we can nourish each other with food, love and meaning, even when we fight. So let My Gita inform your Gita.

Currently I am reading Gita. Each reading of it gives different experiences. My Gita, in its lucid way of expression has added additional dimension to it. Good narration. Devdutt Pattanaik in his own way explains and you cannot stop reading. Very interesting and illuminating.

Thank you for such a beautiful interpretation. Though destiny may be set, we have a choice to choose which path we take. And this book reveals the choices that we can take. Its beyond "good" or "bad", as its more focused on self DEVELOPMENT and COMMUNITY development.

Good read.

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

Simplified and an interesting way to understand. Typical Devdutt Pattanaik way of explaining the meaning behind many Hindu terms. Saw shades of Ramakrishna Mission's Bhagavad Gita. Good read.

Reading this book once will not suffice. A great deal of research has been done. It is a mid way between a self help book and mythology fiction. Enjoyed to the fullest.

New treatment to the Bhagavad Gita
