reviewed The Bhagavad Gita by Easwaran Eknath (The classics of Indian spirituality)

A Classic with Insightful Analysis and Commentary

Easwaran provides fantastic context and analysis of this classic text, with a broad and personal introduction combined with analyses that appear before each chapter. These analyses draw analogies to other religious texts, provide background from other Indian religious texts, and summarizes modern interpretations of the concepts introduced throughout the Gita. There are even notes on the translation and word choice, which I really appreciated. Highly recommend
