The Bhagavad Gita — Exposed and Answered

The Bhagavad Gita ('Song of the Lord') is Hinduism's best-loved scripture: on a battlefield, the god Krishna counsels the warrior Arjuna to do his caste duty and fight, teaching that the soul is eternal, that it passes from body to body as a man changes clothes, and that liberation comes by detachment, knowledge, and devotion. It is printed here complete in Sir Edwin Arnold's celebrated translation, The Song Celestial (1885, public domain). The passages that carry its deepest errors are highlighted and answered from the Bible: one personal Creator, man made once in His image, one life, one judgment, and salvation by grace through the finished work of Christ.
