About the Author

Swami Dayananda Saraswati is a contemporary teacher of Vedanta and a scholar in Sanskrit in the tradition of Sankara. Swamiji has been teaching Vedanta in India for more than five decades and around the world since 1976. His deep scholarship and assimilation of Vedanta combined with a subtle appreciation of contemporary problems make him that rare teacher who can reach both traditional and modern students. A teacher of teachers, Swami Dayananda taught six resident in-depth Vedanta courses, each spanning 30 to 36 months. Four of them were conducted in India and two in the United States. Each course graduated about 60 qualified teachers, who are now teaching throughout India and abroad. Under his guidance, various centers for teaching of Vedanta have been founded around the world; among these, there are three primary centers in India at Rishikesh, Coimbatore, Nagpur and one in the U.S. at Saylorsburg, Pennsylvania. There are more than one hundred centers in India and abroad that carry on the same tradition of Vedantic teaching. In addition to teaching, Swami Dayananda has initiated and supported various humanitarian efforts for the last forty-five years. The most far-reaching of these is the establishment of All India Movement for Seva in 2000. Awarded consultative status with ECOSOC (Economic and Social Council) by the United Nations in 2005, this organization is devoted to serving people in the remote areas of India, mainly in the field of Education and Health Care. Swami Dayananda Saraswati has also promoted several international events and participated as a speaker in several global forums, among which are: the United Nations gathering of NGO's, the UNESCO Seoul Global Convention, the United Nations 50th Anniversary Celebration, the Millennium World Peace Summit, the International Congress for the Preservation of Religious Diversity, the Conference on the Preservation of Sacred Sites, the World Council for Preservation of Religious Diversity, the Youth Peace Summit, the Global Peace Initiative of Women Religious and Spiritual Leaders, a Hindu-Christian dialogue with the World Council of Churches, and the Hindu-Jewish Leadership Summit.

Book Pages In Wrong Order
I was so excited to get a copy of this translation of the Śrīmad Bhagavad Gītā, but now I feel utterly disappointed with the quality of the book. After reading the beginning chapters, I discovered at least five instances when the pages were in the wrong order. I wrote to the seller to request a replacement but have yet to hear back from them.

    Have a few translations of the Gita and this has quickly become one of my favorites. It contains transliteration and Sanskrit alongside clear English informed by a deep non-dual understanding.
  • Reviewed in the United States on July 12, 2014
    This translation of Bhagavad-Gita by Swami Dayananda Saraswati is a personal favorite of mine, but I will admit to being an Advaita Vedantist. When I had heard that the Gita was revered by all Hindus, I felt that I should read it. I started with Prabhupada's translation, which seemed contentious and absolutist. That made me feel that the Gita was not being given its due. When I read Swami Dayananda's translation, things seemed a lot clearer to me. Although Swami Dayananda is an Advaita Vedantist, I feel that his translation does not reflect his philosophical biases through (as Swami Vivekananda has put it) "text-torturing" to make a philosophical point. I'm no Sanskrit scholar, granted. I just feel that Swami Dayananda has given his version of the Gita a lot of care and has translated according to the Sanskrit, not according to his belief in what the Sanskrit "should" say. I also loved that I could look at the verses in the original Sanskrit and brush up on my script. If you are thinking about buying this translation, I also highly recommend Swami Dayananda's "The teaching of the Bhagavad-Gita" as a companion.

    As an Advaita Vedantist I loved the clear English translation - no assumption on the traditions of the reader. As a student of the Sanskrit language I loved that there are no commentaries: I can compare the Devangari script with the IAST (Romanised Sanskrit) then read the translation in English. I find this excellent as both a devotional and educational work! I've now ordered more of Swami Dayananda Saraswati's writings!

    What I was looking for was something that had the Sanskrit text (Devnagari script) as well as translation. This edition has both.

    The only mild surprise was that I imagined this was by the founder of the Arya Samaj, it's by a different Dayananda Saraswati.

    I have read and own many translations of the Holy Bhagavad Gita, but this is both a great edition to read and study with. For those who start their day off with meditation and reflection this particular translation is good to have for true study of the Self.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Translation without biased commentary
    Reviewed in Canada on March 10, 2023
    I never write reviews but for this I will. Exactly what I was looking for as a NRI: Bhagavad Gita with English translation without commentary. The Bhagavad Gita should be read in this way only. Our guru is Krishna. If we are called to read Gita, then He will help us interpret the meaning when read with pure intentions. Jai Shree Krishna.

    Also, I see a lot of people commenting about direct English translation. Please remember that for most Sanskrit words there is no exact English equivalent word so the translation may appear vague; However, there is no need to worry about that because there is no way you can read the Gita and confuse dharma with adharma.
