The Bhagvad Gita is the most important spiritual text in India. Bhagvad Gita is literally the "Song of the Lord". It is a book of about seven hundred Sanskrit verses, spread out over eighteen chapters, and is itself a chapter of the immense Indian epic, the Mahabharata.
Taking the form of a dialogue between the prince and great warrior Arijuna and the God Krishna, this text explores mankind's spiritual dilemmas and examines the various pathways to salvation: through enlightenment, through action and through loving devotion to the Lord.
The Gita is variously dated between the third century BC and the fourth century AD.
