Srimad Bhagavad-Gita is the divine discourse spoken by the Supreme Lord Krishna.
In a very clear and wonderful way the Supreme Lord Krishna describes the science of self-realization and the exact process by which a human being can establish their eternal relationship with God. In terms of pure, spiritual knowledge the Bhagavad- Gita is incomparable. Its intrinsic beauty is that its knowledge applies to all human beings and does not postulate any sectarian idealogy or secular view. It is appproachable from the sanctified realms of all religions and is glorified as the epitome of all spiritual teachings. This is because proficiency in the Bhagavad- Gita reveals the eternal principles which are fundamental and essential for spiritual life from all perspectives and allows one to perfectly understand the esoteric truths hidden within all religious scriptures. Many great thinkers from our times such as Albert Einstein, Mahatma Gandhi and Albert Schweizer as well as Madhvacarya, Sankara and Ramanuja from bygone ages have all contemplated and deliberarted upon its timeless message. The primary purpose of the Bhagavad- Gita is to illuminate for all of humanity the realization of the true nature of divinity; for the highest spiritual conception and the greatest material perfection is to attain love of God!
I feel it is shown in essence how to travel a spiritual path.
Many great world wide persons have given their views like….
The Bhagavad-Gita is the most systematic statement of spiritual evolution of endowing value to mankind. It is one of the most clear and comprehensive summaries of perennial philosophy ever revealed; hence its enduring value is subject not only to India but to all of humanity.
Aldous Huxley
The Bhagavad-Gita is a true scripture of the human race a living creation rather than a book, with a new message for every age and a new meaning for every civilization.
Sri Aurobindo
In the morning I bathe my intellect in the stupendous and cosmogonal philosophy of the Bhagavad-Gita, in comparison with which our modern world and its literature seems puny and trivial.
Henry David Thoreau
The marvel of the Bhagavad-Gita is its truly beautiful revelation of lifes wisdom which enables philosophy to blossom into religion.
Herman Hesse
The Bhagavad-Gita deals essentially with the spiritual foundation of human existence. It is a call of action to meet the obligations and duties of life; yet keeping in view the spiritual nature and grander purpose of the universe.

Jai Shree Ram!!!!
Any epic that is written earlier was a mode of communication to the society to tell what should be an ideal idol look like.
In this epic the Lord krishna is considered to be Param Pita parmeshwar him self and then the trruth of life had been explained through him.
What is this life? How should one consider his life? What are the values of relationships?Where from this life began and where it ends?
Basically life Pholosophy can be learnt from this.
Bhagwat Geeta, in very simple and straight way tells us how to live in the world, and be unattached to it and progress on the path of Truth
When God himself showed the way through Geeta, not need for us to appreciate it, Truth is TRUTH !!
every aspect of individual life can be managed
by Devine Song called Geeta,Let all shubh karms be done by doer.
EVERYTHING
Its the best spiritual book ever written IMO
Man is powerless. All that he boasts of are not his possessions or achievements, but alms thrown to him by God.
The true path to the TRUTH !!
