Publisher's Summary

Rarely in a lifetime does a new spiritual classic appear that has the power to change people's lives and transform future generations. This is such a book. The Essence of the Bhagavad Gita: Explained by Paramhansa Yogananda shares the profound insights of Yogananda, author of Autobiography of a Yogi, as remembered by one of his few remaining direct disciples, Swami Kriyananda.

This revelation of India's best-loved scripture approaches it from an entirely fresh perspective, showing its deep allegorical meaning as well as its down-to-earth practicality. The themes presented are universal: how to achieve victory in life in union with the divine; how to prepare for life's "final exam", death, and what happens afterward; and how to triumph over all pain and suffering.

One of the best books ever!

My name is Krishna and this book made me feel very special. I am happy I listened to it and learned and relearned some stuff I have forgotten!

Great story

Love this story, I get mixed up in what he’s saying. His voice is lovely and good storytelling, but I can hear him inhale every breath, it distracts me.
