In a world suffocating from materialism, Think Gita is dedicated to creating a sheltering community grounded in the deep wisdom of the Bhagavad-gita.

A 5,000 year-old universal and practical life companion. Religious or not, philosophical or not, spiritual or not, the Bhagavad-gita equips the reader with the vision to navigate life and its inevitable twists and turns, with grit and grace.

The setting is one of the largest and most famous historical wars the world has seen. At Kurukshetra, two branches of one royal family lined up as the Kaurava brothers, driven by pride and greed, refused to give the Pandava brothers their rightful kingdom. They were refused any land to govern, going against the Pandavas natures as leaders.

As the battle was about to begin, the great warrior Arjuna asked Krishna, Divinity serving as his chariot driver, to take him to the centre of the battlefield. Seeing his own family, friends, and countrymen lined up to fight and die, Arjuna was overcome by doubt and despair. In that crisis, he began asking life's deepest questions - about duty, happiness, and the meaning of it all, sparking a profound conversation that became the Bhagavad-gita.

The Bhagavad-gita is the ultimate How-To guide. Each day we are wondering how to make good choices, how to find purpose, or how to love deeply, these topics were addressed comprehensively on a battlefield 5,000 years ago. Think Gita is dedicated to unpacking this practical wisdom 5,000 years later, to bring it from words on a book to lived experience through Courses, Circles and Retreats.

  • Soul. Material World. Activity. Time. God

Soul.

Our physical body is nothing more than a costume. We are spirit souls; the consciousness which animates the body. This life is merely one chapter of a much longer story.

Image

Material World.

The world is a cosmic university, wired to make us think – “is there a deeper meaning to life?” Here we come to experience and enjoy life through material pursuits.

Image

Activity.

The law of action and reaction is nature’s way to educate and evolve us. Good actions are rewarded, bad actions are punished and spiritual actions bring real happiness and ultimate freedom.

Image

Time.

Our life, the universe and everything around us moves according to the wheel of time. Time brings death – an uncomfortable reality. We naturally seek eternity, since our real self is spiritual.

Image

Divinity.

Our ‘human journey’ is an opportunity to reawaken our eternal relationship with Divinity and return to the spiritual world, where every step is a dance and every word a song. Krishna explains how to do this through yoga, which literally means ‘to link.’

Bhagavad-gita as it is

Bhagavad-gita as it is

As of today, there are hundreds of translations of this ancient Sanskrit text available. Think Gita is particularly inspired by the translation of His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Srila Prabhupada. His Divine Grace presents a transparent edition, showing the reader how He translates each word for each of the 700 verses, while detailing in his extensive commentaries why He makes those decisions. As a practitioner himself, he fits the criteria for a good teacher — namely that he knows the way, goes the way and shows the way. In an age of information overload, this translation shows its fruit in the results it has garnered from readers in the form of transformation and spiritual cultivation.
