Human existence is riddled with battles of all sorts. Although the outward appearance of the battlefield has changed over the past five thousand years, the struggle for peace, love and success is just the same, both at a personal and community level. Of all the options which were available to Shri Krishna, why did He choose war? Are there scientific explanations of the Universe according to ancient teachings? Do Hindu scriptures concur that I am a small part of the entire universe? Can any of these information lead to my enduring happiness? Many questions are answered in this commentary of the Bhagwad Gita. The Shrimad Bhagwad Gita is an inspiring text which transcends the boundaries of nationality, ethnicity or religion. The Gita is not great because Shri Krishna spoke it; Shri Krishna is great because He spoke the Gita. Swami Vivekananda
