7r: THE BHAGAVAD-GITA AS IT IS

Now for the first time this renowed scripture is being brought to the West as it is-as taught by Krsna Himself and understood by His disciple Arjuna-in a unique translation and commentary by A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami. Krsna is the Supreme Personality of Godhead and the supreme authority on the Gita, and He initially delivered the Gita so that all persons-workers, students, philosophers, and yogis-could reach the perfection of life and be liberated from all suffering. A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami is passing on Krsna's mercy in its full potency, as it is, so that everyone can attain to his rightful position, full of bliss and knowledge.

From the Introduction: "The perplexities of life appear like a forest fire which takes place without being set by anyone. The man in material perplexities is he who does not understand the problems of life. Out of many many human beings, the Bhagavad-gita is directed to the one who seeks to understand his position."
