Gita to be the promoter of our social life

Suparna Sarkar

The Bhagavad Gita is an ancient Indian text that became an important work of Hindu tradition in terms of both literature and philosophy. All we know that, the Bhagavad Gita is a poetic description of the conversation between Krishna and Arjuna. It is the holy book of the Hindus. Like the Vedas and the Upanishads, the authorship of the Gita is unclear. However, the credit for this text is traditionally given to a man named Vyasa, who is more of a legend than an actual historical figure. This ancient Indian text is about the search for serenity, calmness and permanence in a word of rapid change and how to integrate spiritual values into ordinary life. The battlefield is symbolic of life. Most of us are also full of fears and misgivings about meeting the challenges that life throws in our face. The Gita is a guide for every problem that we may encounter. Stress, anxiety and tension have engulfed the youth in the present age. As a result, the youth are suffering from premature aging and various diseases. Lord Krishna is a best motivational speaker in this world. The immortal message of Lord Krishna to the youth is –क्लैव्यं मास्म गमः पार्थ नैतत् त्वय्युपपद्यते । क्षुद्रं हृदयदौर्वल्यं त्यक्तोत्तिष्ठ परन्तप ।। इति । (२ /३)The teaching of the Gita for mankind is not to be afraid of action, to be engaged in action knowing the true nature of action, so following the great ideals of the Gita is beneficial for society, for the country, and above all for oneself.
