Krishna

0/5 ( ratings)

This is a magical, unexpurgated life of Krishna, told in a spirit of bhakti for the modern reader.
The book opens on the battlefield of Kurukshetra, on the brink of war, when the great Pandava warrior Arjuna suffers a crisis of courage and conscience. His divine cousin and charioteer, Krishna, begins to expound the eternal dharma to him. The exposition between two teeming armies is the Bhagavad-Gita, the Song of God.
The story shifts back to Krishna's birth, and then again to the battlefield; and so on, from his Gita to the Avatara's life, until both narratives flow together, just before the Great War erupts.
Never before have Krishna's holy Gita and his brilliant, unforgettable life been juxtaposed so vividly and with such enchantment as in this book.

Ramesh Menon has written several widely read books in the Great Indian Tradition. These include the Ramayana, the Mahabharata, the Siva Purana, the Devi Bhagavatam, and the Bhagavata Purana. He has also translated the Bhagavad Gita in verse from the Sanskrit in a separate volume.
