Unique in its wide publication and extensive circulation, the Srimad Bhagavad-gita has appeared in various languages, both in India and other countries, along with the commentaries of former great saints as well as modern scholars. Although numerous editions of the Gita are presently available, few commentaries can be said to nurture pure devotion according to the teachings of a bona fide divine succession. Showing the inferiority and meaninglessness of dry renunciation, the gift of Śrī Gītā is most substantial and positive. Rather than merely renouncing action, one should selflessly offer ones actions to the Supreme Lord (karma-yoga). Ultimately, based on ones surrender, one will be inspired to act in devotion (bhakti) for the Lord alone.
