Sarva Gita Sara

 
Swami Sivananda (Author)
Synopsis This book of Gita is a Celestial key for you to gain entry into the domain of Divine Life and Splendor. These Gitas contain living messages from illumined seers. They have the power to transform your life.  The crown and glory of Indian Philosophy is the Advaita Vedanta. The genius of India is specially distinguished for its rare tolerance and universality. Even while asserting emphatically that Truth is One, yet, simultaneously allowance is made for varied expressions of the One Truth. Truth is the Goal and Destination of humanity. But sage-wisdom perceived that neither capacity nor fitness to receive was alike in all beings. Thus it came about that the rich spiritual lore of India has come to contain within its wide range numerous shades and grades of revelatory and expository works. Different works embodied a different style and presentation, so as to be accessible to and assailable by different types of minds. The Infinitude of Truth was never allowed to get stifled by the cramping confinement of a single severe style and a set mode of right expression. The most difficult and obscure of works are the Upanishads and the Sutras. These tough treatises touch the highest peak-points of the sublime Vedanta Philosophy. But even as the lofty philosophy they deal with, these works themselves are inaccessible to most men. Few indeed can understand them without explanation and elaboration. The ordinary layman, thus, finds it impossible to ascend to the height of super mundane knowledge. Hence came the Smritis, the Itihasas, the Puranas and such simple and easy texts as these numerous Gitas collected in this present volume. This chains of Gitas served admirably to surmount this barrier and bring to all seekers and aspirants. In these Gitas are found the loftiest flights of grand Advaita-Veda. With their comprehensive range, these Gitas present us with the essence of all philosophy, religion, spiritual Sadhna, Dharma and Psychology. What is more, this they do in a language easily intelligible to the lay man. Further, these are not dry to read, but on the other hand beautiful poetical compositions, so fine and inspiring that unconsciously one finds oneself committing them to memory without much effort.

About the author

Swami Sivananda

Born on the 8th September, 1887, in the illustrious family of Sage Appayya Dikshitr an several other renowned saints and savants, Sri Swami Sivananda had a natural flair for a life devoted to the study and practice of Vedanta. Added to this was an inborn eagerness to serve all and an innate feeling of unity with all mankind. His passion for service drew him to the medical career; and soon he gravitated to where he thought that his service was most needed. Malaya claimed him. He had earlier been editing a health journal and wrote extensively on health problems. He discovered that people needed right knowledge most of all; dissemination of that knowledge he espoused as his own mission. It was Divine dispensation and the blessing of God upon mankind that the doctor of body and mind renounced his career and took to a life of renunciation to qualify for ministering to the soul of man. He settled down at Rishikesh in 1924, practised intense austerities and shone as a great Yogi, saint, sage and Jivanmukta. In 1932 Swami Sivananda started the Sivanandashram. In 1936 was born The Divine Life society. In 948 the Yoga-Vedanta Forest Academy was organized. Dissemination of spiritual knowledge and training of people in Yoga and Vedanta were their aim and object. In 950 Swamiji undertook a lightning tour of India and Ceylon. In 953 Swamiji convened a 'World Parliament of Religions'. Swamiji is the author of over 300 volumes and has disciples and creeds. To read Swamiji's works is to drink at the fountain of Wisdom Supreme. On 14th July, 1963 Swamiji entered Mahasamadhi.
