Product Description


In Chapter 3, Shri Krishna explains to a confused Arjuna that though knowledge may seem superior to action, it is imperative that both be practised. Step by step, Shri Krishna shows how the path of action is a means to the end and what happens to those who do not act. Action when practiced without attachment to its result, purifies the mind and integrates the personality. This makes the mind receptive to the knowledge that leads to Self-realisation.In Chapter 4, an all out effort is made by Krishna to bring home to Arjuna that the Lord himself, the author of the Vedas, had been asserting the same old Truth and nothing new.

The 4th chapter indicates the greater path of Gyana Yoga, the "Path-of-Knowledge"which is the only main arch-way through which all pilgrims must pass in order to reach the Temple of the Self. Upto this archway, seekers living in different psychological and intellectual domains may walk their own "paths", but the main gate is Gyana Yoga which all must pass to have Darshana at the glorious altar

About the Author

Swami Chinmayananda

Born as Balakrishna Menon on May 8, 1916 in Ernakulam, Kerala, Swami Chinmayananda was a dynamic youth with a sharp mind. After earning a degree in English Literature, he embarked on a promising career in journalism and became involved in India’s freedom struggle.

Imprisoned and struck by serious illness in 1942, Balakrishna emerged changed and began to question the deeper purpose of life. A turning point came in Rishikesh where he met Swami Sivananda in 1947; this meeting set him on an inward journey. Soon after, he adopted renunciation and was initiated as Swami Chinmayananda Saraswati, becoming a disciple of Swami Tapovan Maharaj, with whom he studied the Bhagavad Gita, Upanishads and Vedanta in austere conditions high in the Himalayas.

After completing his spiritual training, he felt compelled to share the wisdom he had received. In December 1951, he conducted his first Jnana Yajna, a series of spiritual discourses in Pune. This humble start blossomed into the global movement known today as Chinmaya Mission, as he founded many Ashrams, Centres, schools, hospitals and clinics over the decades. He worked to make Vedanta accessible to all regardless of age, nationality or faith.

For over four decades, Swami Chinmayananda traveled and taught tirelessly writing books, giving lectures, training disciples, and meeting seekers wherever they were. He saw the timeless values of India’s spiritual heritage not as relics of the past, but as living tools for modern life.

He attained Mahasamadhi in August 1993. His legacy continues through the many institutions he founded, the teachings he left behind in books and audio-video recordings and the ongoing work of those trained under him at Chinmaya Mission Centres worldwide.
