The Geeta: The Gospel of the Lord Shri Krishna

Shri Purohit Swami, an Indian mystic and poet whose work was much admired by W.B. Yeats, first published his translation of The Geeta in the 1930s. It remains the finest interpretation of the text for a Western audience, a beautiful rendering of the original into English which conveys a clearer and more truthful impression of what the Indian reader takes it to mean than a literal translation would do.
