About this title

About the Author:

When Swami Satyananda's guru invited him to trek into the Himalayas, he asked what he should bring along. "Nothing," came the reply. Fifteen years later, Swamiji knew the mountain pathways as well as the Hindu systems of worship. His numerous books and translations of ancient Sanskrit texts are available all over India, as well as in the United States, and he is widely regarded as a Master of the ancient Vedic fire ceremony and other systems of worship. Now Swamiji invites us to trek into the Himalayas and listen and learn from the sadhus of the mountains.

Review:

I found Swami Satyandna's Gita lucid and filled with spiritual emotion. This remarkable translation is a treasure. -- Steven Newmark, Ph.D., author of Maharaji's Darshan

Swami Satyananda is not a dry academic, nor an Indian pundit. His translation is alive with meaning. -- Steven Newmark, Ph.D., author of Maharaji's Darshan

This is an excellent translation with a very readable modern English application of this knowledge to modern life. -- Juie Victor, India Currents, Dec, 1997
