The Bhagavad Gita for Daily Living

This work is a comprehensive, three-volume, verse-by-verse translation and commentary on the Bhagavad Gita by Eknath Easwaran. It is presented as a practical manual for modern life, illustrating the scripture's timeless and lofty spiritual insights with everyday events and contemporary problems. The core message of the book is that the Gita's setting—a battlefield between good and evil—represents the acute, internal struggle for self-mastery that every person must wage. The commentary focuses on concrete aspects of spiritual practice, emphasizing the unity of all life, the necessity of personal spiritual growth, and how to apply concepts like Karma to daily choices. The three volumes of the set are subtitled: Volume I: The End of Sorrow (focusing on the individual's innermost Self); Volume II: Like a Thousand Suns (bridging scientific and spiritual understanding of unity); and Volume III: To Love Is to Know Me (addressing Karma and individual action in a global context).
