So Now I Own a Copy

I was at Half Price Books the other day. I now own a copy (albeit a cheap mass-media falling apart and dog-eared copy) that I suppose I better get cracking on before the 31st of July…

I have still only read the Intro. I have actualy decided to read it a second time. There are alot of concepts that I need to wrap my head around further before I completely immerse myself the way that I would like to.
Even the concept of KARMA, is much deeper than I have even thought about. ( and i analyze everything) The connotation is just amazing.
I never realized how much this would be related to alot of the Christian ideals. I should have known, right. I really want to take my time with this one.

get the stephen mitchell translation- it retains much of the original poetic quality. if you’re interested in religion, this book is a must-read. it changed my entire perspective on life.

A concise, clear, and inspiring book!
You can get it at the library, or read it online:

It was tough to get into but I ended up reading it all within 24 hours. Unfortunately I liked the last third the most. This third is, according to the author of my translation, deficient and simplistic compared to the first two thirds. Oh well. Mystic I am not.
Also, I’m not convinced why Arjuna should fight. Apparently Thoreau agreed.

Kaishaku asks,
“Although Rama and Krishna are both avatars of Vishnu, clearly Krishna is considered more supreme or is more highly revered. Why is that?”
