About this listen

In My Gita, acclaimed mythologist Devdutt Pattanaik demystifies The Bhagavad Gita for the contemporary reader. His unique approach - thematic rather than verse by verse - makes the ancient treatise eminently accessible.

In a world that seems spellbound by argument over dialogue, vi-vaad over sam-vaad, Devdutt highlights how Krishna nudges Arjuna to understand rather than judge his relationships. This becomes relevant today when we are increasingly indulging and isolating the self (self-improvement, self-actualization, self-realization - even selfies!). We forget that we live in an ecosystem of others, where we can nourish each other with food, love and meaning, even when we fight.

So let My Gita inform your Gita.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

know Mahabharat and Ramayana first

narration was good, but as it is Gita, there's always complexity involved. listen Ramayana and Mahabharat first to fill the gaps

My Gita: The simplest one

Devdutt is known for his simple and elaborate explanation on mythology.
My Gita should be heard, read and applied is one’s own life.

Various illustration by the author are exquisite.

Unique perspective

Very interesting book. The author at the start says that the book represents his understanding of the Geeta and it should be taken in that perspective.

must read for all

i really liked that he layed out info in front of us without telling us what is best unlike other authors do. cross references of buddhism , jainism, western religions as well offered which helped in understanding gita better and how it is different.
