Bhagavad-gita Gallery

One of the world's best known and most profound theistic literatures, Bhagavad-gita has inspired thinkers throughout the centuries. Its praises have been sung by Thoreau, Emerson, Gandhi, Einstein and many others.

Hundreds of millions of people consider it as their main scripture.Srila Prabhupada's translation and commentary is much loved for, among many things, its illustrations, all painted especially for this translation.

 
Bhagavad-gita As It Is
 

The illustrations are beautiful and profound by themselves, but as a series they bring to life the message of Bhagavad-gita.

You can listen to the sanksrit verses on your Real Player while you view the images.

The miscreants and the pious
Men of small intelligence seek favours from the demigods
Fools deride Me
If one offers Me with love and devotion a leaf, a flower, fruit or water, I will accept it
       
The playmates of Krishna are so immersed in pure love that they do not even realise He is the Supreme Personality of Godhead
Krishna's Universal Form
Krishna displaying His four-armed form
The Supersoul is the original source of all senses
       
Different foods for different types of people
The living entity in the material world carries his different conceptions of life from one body to another

Always think of Me, become My devotee, worship Me and offer your homage unto Me. Thus you will come to Me without fail. I promise you this because you are My very dear friend.
     
Wherever there is Krishna, the master of all mystics, and wherever there is Arjuna, the supreme archer, there will also certainly be opulence, victory, extraordinary power, and morality.
