Bhagawad Geeta The Gospel of Timeless Wisdom
In her work, Bhagawad Geeta: The Gospel of Timeless Wisdom, Prabha Duneja distills and interprets the much-revered Bhagawad Geeta, making it clear and accessible for the contemporary Western mind. Duneja is wonderfully positive in her prescriptions, stating with steadfast confidence that Sri Kṛṣṇa’s teaching is reliable and when undertaken with body, heart and mind, the outcomes are an attainable guarantee. In beautiful devotion to her Lord Kṛṣṇa, Duneja is a purist, reminding us all that connection with the Divine happens most fully by keeping the Divine near to us as much as possible – in each thought, with every action. Compassionately, she emphasizes the simplicity of this practice, over its perfection, by emphasizing that our intention to live from this place of devotion and connectivity does, in fact, increase and multiply with attention, thereby bringing greater union with the One. Most importantly, Duneja brings the teachings of this ancient text to today, by illustrating how again and again the Geeta requests us to rely on our deeper knowing. From here, devotees can begin the great reconciliation between the pace and practice of a profit-driven world, with a spirit-sourced way of trusting and living.
