About The Book

This book is a collection of 365 verses of unadulterated wisdom, providing answers to all our confusions. In the battleground of our life, no one day is the same as the other, each comes with its own set of challenges. We can never be prepared enough to handle all that life throws our way. It would not be unusual for us to feel discouraged, or even panic, just like the Pandava prince Arjun lost his nerve just before the start of the battle of Mahabharata. Fortunately for him, Lord Krishna acted like a psychologist and pulled him out of the depths of his trepidation. It took 700 verses for Krishna to clear up Arjun's confusions and make him battle-ready.

Everyday Gita takes 365 of the most effective of those verses and explains simplistically how to fight the stresses and fears in our daily life and come out a winner. Always.

Preface

Bhagavad Gita is the universal truth, it is the song of the Spirit. It gives us knowledge of the Self and answers two universal questions: "Who am I?" and "How can I lead a happy and peaceful life?"

On the first day of the great war of Mahabharata, Arjun, one of the Pandavas, faced a major dilemma. He had to make a choice between fighting the war and killing his teachers, friends and relatives or running away from the battlefield for the sake of avoiding violence and preserving peace. He wanted to do the latter.

The 700 verses through which Krishna, Arjun's charioteer. relayed practical wisdom to him is known as the Bhagavad Gita. At the end, a confident and decisive Arjun went on to fight and ultimately win the war.

Arjun's dilemma was, in reality, the universal dilemma. All of us face dilemmas, big and small, in our everyday life while performing our duties. For instance, there is always a tug-of-war between our workplace and family responsibilities. At the core of every dilemma stands our mind and intellect facing each other. The impulsive tendencies (Kauravas) of our blind mind (Dhritarashtra) and the self-disciplined thoughts (Pandavas) of our intellect (Pandu) fight a battle every day with our body being the battlefield (Kurukshetra).

Krishna suggests through the Bhagavad Gita that we should. indulge in a daily honest introspection to see which force, good or evil, wins the daily battle everyday.

I have grown up seeing my grandfather and father maintaining daily diaries. During our moral education classes in school, we were asked to remember God every night at bedtime and apologize for any mistakes done during the day.
