Namah Shivaya

 

 

the best Gita translations I have come across are:

 

1) The Song of God- By Christopher Isherwood and Swami Prabhavananda- vedanta

society, CA.

 

2) Bhagavad Gita by Swami Chidbhavananda - Sri Ramakrishna Mission- gives a

word by word translation, transliteration and a short meaning - all in the light

of non judgemental all including Vedanta/Sri Ramakrishna point of view.

 

3) Gita by Swami Gurudasananda - disciple of Sri janaki Mata who Herself was a

self realized disciple of Sri Ramana Maharishi- in Bhagavan Ramana's pwn

wordsSri Janaki Mata was a realized soul, one of His advanced disciples. This is

one of the best translations i have come across -but i dont know if it is

available in print today- probably even in India it is hard to get.

I wanna put in a word for the translation of the BG by Juan Mascaro on

Penguin classics. Small & simple, but deep & wide for the size. I like this one

for

those who want to grasp both the philosophy & prose of the Gita without

getting into a major study. Great for newbies and the just curious.

 

Jai Ma
