Essays on The Gita Part IV
Author: Chandan Sengupta
Publisher: Chandan Sukumar Sengupta
ISBN: 9359879487
Category : Antiques & Collectibles
Languages : en
Pages : 298
Book Description
This volume of Essays on The Gita will cover up the doctrines and rituals explained differently by Sage Veda Vyasa various chapters. Different names for this part are coined by saints and Philosophers time to time. It is also true that we are willingly or unwillingly move through instances when mind and intellect get indulge in arbitrations related to our definite role in society. The Yoga of Knowledge and Actions are also closely linked up when we move on to execute some activities, claim some rights and perform some duties. We cannot claim that this volume will provide vivid translation of the Holy Scripture titled The Bhagavadgita; even it is not confirmed that descriptions, comments or narratives of all types duly proposed by different narrators are converged before preparing this document. It has some sort of linkages to the modern context and the context of Epics to work out relevance of the Holy Scripture. This book will also reflect relevance of The Bhagavadgita on the basis of its applicability and justifications. We can put us easily at the place of the fellow warrior if entire society is considered as a battle field; there requires a time tested guidance upon which one can rely perfectly for working out a solution; for establishing balance of mind and intellect; for regulating senses with the help of quality segments of Ego (AHAM); for feeling the presence of the Supreme Master besides all kinds of material as well as living manifestations. Realising the omnipresence of Brahman and acknowledging presence of such masterly guide at all instances of creation is the real objective to be accomplished during life span of a human. It can be accomplished under abled guidance of a Divine master.

The Difficulty of Being Good
Author: Gurcharan Das
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0199781478
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 486
Book Description
Why should we be good? How should we be good? And how might we more deeply understand the moral and ethical failings--splashed across today's headlines--that have not only destroyed individual lives but caused widespread calamity as well, bringing communities, nations, and indeed the global economy to the brink of collapse? In The Difficulty of Being Good, Gurcharan Das seeks answers to these questions in an unlikely source: the 2,000 year-old Sanskrit epic, Mahabharata. A sprawling, witty, ironic, and delightful poem, the Mahabharata is obsessed with the elusive notion of dharma--in essence, doing the right thing. When a hero does something wrong in a Greek epic, he wastes little time on self-reflection; when a hero falters in the Mahabharata, the action stops and everyone weighs in with a different and often contradictory take on dharma. Each major character in the epic embodies a significant moral failing or virtue, and their struggles mirror with uncanny precision our own familiar emotions of anxiety, courage, despair, remorse, envy, compassion, vengefulness, and duty. Das explores the Mahabharata from many perspectives and compares the successes and failures of the poem's characters to those of contemporary individuals, many of them highly visible players in the world of economics, business, and politics. In every case, he finds striking parallels that carry lessons for everyone faced with ethical and moral dilemmas in today's complex world. Written with the flair and seemingly effortless erudition that have made Gurcharan Das a bestselling author around the world--and enlivened by Das's forthright discussion of his own personal search for a more meaningful life--The Difficulty of Being Good shines the light of an ancient poem on the most challenging moral ambiguities of modern life.
