Bhagavad Gita: An incredible dialogue between Arjuna & Lord Krishna

Bhagavad Gita means 'song of God'. This noble mandate is at the heart of Indian spirituality. This holy book teaches man to overcome his low instincts and realize his full potential as a human being, that is to know himself as an eternal Atman, one with God. There is an expression that states that Bhagavad Gita is the 5th Vedic, which seems very sensible. If you read the Gita, you will find the essence of the supreme purification of humanity, human struggle, the true truth about God, and the human obligation of the neighbor, the universe, not just the obligation to God, the Creator himself. Bhagavad Gita is very universal, and there are many world leaders from ancient times read and inspired by Gita.  The Bhagavad Gita is the universal teachings for all mankind, not only for Indians or Hindus.
