The Gita is one of the clearest and most comprehensive summaries of the Perennial Philosophy ever to have been done.

Aldous Huxley

The Gita is a bouquet composed of the beautiful flowers of spiritual truths collected from the Upanishads.

Swami Vivekananda

My last prayer to everyone, therefore, is that one should not fail to thoroughly understand this ancient science of the life of a householder, or of worldly life, as early as possible in one’s life.

Lokmanya Tilak

The Gita is a book that has worn extraordinarily well, and it is almost as fresh and still in its real substance quite as new, because always renewable in experience, as when it first appeared in or was written into the frame of the Mahabharata.

Sri Aurobindo

When disappointment stares me in the face and all alone, I see not one ray of light, I go back to the Bhagavad Gita. I find a verse here and a verse there, and I immediately begin to smile in the midst of overwhelming tragedies – and if they have left no visible, no indelible scare on me, I owe it all to the teaching of Bhagavad Gita.

Mahatma Gandhi

The teaching of the ancient battlefield gives guidance in all later days, and trains the aspiring soul in treading the steep and thorny path that leads to peace.

Dr Annie Besant

To my knowledge, there is no book in the whole range of the world’s literature so high above all as the Bhagavad Geeta which is treasure-house of Dharma not only for Hindus but for all mankind.
