[[The battle at Kurukshetra is the symbolic battle of our ego and our soul.]] ** It may also represent our divine destiny. Our dharma, or duty, to the path we are born to. [[i have found the interpretation by Yogananda, the very best and most helpful of all the versions in print.]] ** I too have read several versions of the Gita. My favorite is the one prepared by my Gurudev, Sri Swami Sivananda. Which brings up two good Qs for the list: - What is your favorite version of the Gita, & why? - What is your favorite verse within the Gita, & why? To answer the second Q, I favor chapter 12, verses 13 - 19. It is something I read everyday - without fail. It is, in my Heart, the goal of my life. Om Santi ...
