Bhagavad Gita Study Group
Bhagavad Gita is universally renowned as the jewel of India's spiritual wisdom. Its 700 concise verses provide a definitive guide to the science of self-realization. Indeed, there is no work even comparable in its revelations of man's essential nature, his environment and, ultimately, his relationship with God.
Study Group Schedule
Every Friday at 4:30 pm, we conduct a study group in the Bhagavad Gita. A light vegetarian dinner is served followed by a lively and intellectually stimulating discussion.
Location will be Room 568 in Lerner Hall. Please sign-up to our email list (located on the homepage) for schedule and location updates.
Famous Quotes on Bhagavad Gita:
Henry David Thoreau
"In the morning I bathe my intellect in the stupendous and cosmogonal philosophy of the Bhagavad-gita, in comparison with which our modern world and its literature seem puny and trivial."
Ralph Waldo Emerson
"I owed a magnificent day to the Bhagavad Gita. It was the first of books; it was as if an empire spoke to us, nothing small or unworthy, but large, serene, consistent, the voice of an old intelligence which in another age and climate had pondered and thus disposed uf the same questions which exercise us."
Mahatma Gandhi
"When doubts haunt me, when disappointments stare me in the face, and I see not one ray of hope on the horizon, I turn to the Bhagavad Gita and find a verse to comfort me; and I immediately begin to smile in the midst of overwhelming sorrow. Those who meditate on the Gita will derive fresh joy and new meanings from it everyday."
Albert Einstein
"When I read the Bhagavad Gita and reflect about how God created this universe everything else seems so superfluous."
