The best known of the Vedic texts, the Bhagavad-gita (Song of God), is the philosophical basis for the Hare Krsna movement. Dating back 5,000 years, it is sacred to nearly a billion people today. This exalted work has been praised by scholars and leaders the world over.
Mahatma Gandhi said, When doubts haunt me, when disappointments stare me in the face and I see not one ray of hope, I turn to the Bhagavad-gita and find a verse to comfort me.
Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote, It was the first of books; it was as if an empire spoke to us, nothing small or unworthy, but large, serene, consistent, the voice of an old intelligence which in another age and climate had pondered and thus disposed of the same questions which exercise us. It is not surprising to anyone familiar with the Gita that Henry David Thoreau said, In the morning I bathe my intellect in the stupendous and cosmogonal philosophy of the Bhagavad-gita.
So if there is only one God, how many expansions does he have? What does He look like? What are His qualities? What is my relationship to Him? All theses questions can be answered by www.SrimadBhagavatam.org (http://www.SrimadBhagavatam.org) ONLY the serious need apply.
