It is revered as a sacred scripture of   Hinduism, and considered as one of the most important religious classics of the   world.\u003csup\u003e \u003c\/sup\u003eThe Bhagavad Gita comprising 700 verses, is a part of the   \u003ci\u003eMahabharata\u003c\/i\u003e. The teacher of the Bhagavad Gita is Krishna, who is regarded   by the Hindus as the supreme manifestation of the Lord Himself, and is referred   to within as Bhagavan—the divine one. The Bhagavad Gita is commonly referred to   as \u003cb\u003eThe Gita\u003c\/b\u003e for short.   \u003cp\u003eThe content of the Gita is the conversation between Krishna and Arjuna taking   place on the battlefield before the start of the Kurukshetra war. Responding to   Arjuna's confusion and moral dilemma, Krishna explains to Arjuna his duties as a   warrior and prince and elaborates on different Yogic\u003csup\u003e \u003c\/sup\u003eand Vedantic   philosophies, with examples and analogies. This has led to the Gita often being   described as a concise guide to Hindu philosophy and also as a practical,   self-contained guide to life. Maharishi Mahesh Yogi describes it as a lighthouse   of eternal wisdom that has the ability to inspire any man or woman to supreme   accomplishment and enlightenment.\u003csup\u003e \u003c\/sup\u003eDuring the discourse, Krishna   reveals his identity as the Supreme Being Himself (\u003ci\u003eSvayam bhagavan\u003c\/i\u003e),   blessing Arjuna with an awe-inspiring vision of his divine universal form.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e- Excerpted from the Wikipedia\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MobileReference","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47151295889648,"sku":"9781607787044","price":0.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781607787044_p0.jpg?v=1763832142","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781607787044","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
