Also known as The Song of the Lord, The Sublime Song or The Message of the Master, the Bhagavad Gita is the essence of Vedic knowledge of India and one of the great classics of spiritual literature and philosophical world.

In its literal sense, as the best known part of the Mahabharata, the greatest work of Sanskrit literature and one of the most important universal literature, contains the advice of Krishna - the supreme embodiment of Divinity - Arjuna, his confidant, friend and devotee, looking for free you of anxiety and perplexity in which he found himself, on the verge of a fight against their own relatives.

But besides this historical sense, material or literal, the Bhagavad Gita, like all Scripture, yet have varying degrees of spiritual or esoteric sense, figuring the perplexity of Arjuna to fight that rages inside every man between Good and Evil between the superior forces of the Soul and its inferior forces. Krishna, who explains to him the true human nature and its relationship with God, is the Word of God, the Logos or Christ in us, our immortal Divine Ego.

The perennial philosophy of the Gita intrigued by the philosophical mind of man, both East and West, to the point of provoking statements more excited by some of its greatest thinkers, like that of Henry Thoreau: "... Compared with the Gita, our modern world and its literature seem puny and trivial "or consagradoras definitions like this, which was given by Wilhelm Von Humboldt:" The most profound and sublime available to the world.
