A masterpiece of scriptural literature, Bhagavad-gītā is a sacred song in the form of a battlefield dialogue between the Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa and Arjuna, His friend and disciple.
Kṛṣṇa, acting as Arjuna's advisor, instructs him in the science of self-realization, teaching him how to live as a devotee of the Lord and to thus reach the eternal spiritaul world while continuing to perform his earthly duties
